Hello. Well here I am making changes to better my health. I went to the doctor about a month ago
...blood pressure higher than Scotty beamed up in space. So they put me on meds and I go back a week later...Scotty just ain't trying to come back to earth. So now I'm on a third medication and that is seemingly working for me. The doctor wants me back two weeks later to see how my pressure is, and I be doggone if it ain't stroke level. So I tell the doctor that I believe it's white coat hypertension along with other stressors in my life. Well now I'm on medication number 4. It was at that time that I said "This ain't it!!!" So here I am...47 lbs overweight(lost 3 lbs since last appointment a week ago), high blood pressure and tired. I'm determined to live a much healthier lifestyle...not just for me but my 4 children and 1st grandbaby due in April. It took that scare to say "This ain't it" and make the changes that I needed to make. I'm on my way!!!!
