It’s like riding a roller coaster.

And then from the evening.

I had a medication review today. We’ve decided to change things yet again. I’ve no idea what difference it will make, but the doctor suggested not taking my BP for a while to see what happens. It does rather feel like we’re just messing about trying different things in the hope that we’ll eventually come across a combination that works. Or I have a heart attack and die, of course. That would also solve the problem 😀

Another morning (pre meds) reading. Grrr.

Blood pressure readings from morning and evening the day after the previous post.

So, in the morning before taking the meds, one day I get 223 and the next 145. How does that make sense? I’m not aware that I’m doing anything different in either case. My morning routine is pretty regular. I’ve not nipped out and run a marathon and forgotten about it, though if I had perhaps that would explain why I feel so lost.

Morning (pre medication), early afternoon and evening blood pressures from a few days ago.

I really don’t know what to make of this. Often it feels as though there’s little point taking the medication at all. Perhaps it just means I won’t die when I’m awake. Which I could live with (ho ho).
