over the weekend i ran out of one of my blood pressure pills. i met with my heart dr. this morning to get a refill. it had been about 4 months since i last saw her. she said i looked good, that i had a nice glow and that overall i looked alot better than i had last time we met and to keep it up! so that was a nice thing for her to say! :) i had also lost a few pounds, so that was cool. (since i had last seen her i started the iron regime...and she was impressed that the extra heartbeat was gone too thanks to that!) then she went on to say that my BP was still a little high and she is increasing the dosage of one of my pills,and that i needed to exercise and keep losing weight (cue the DUH moment for myself). oh well you take the good with the bad
i have an apt next monday with my family dr to redo the blood work and see if i still need to take iron 2x day and also to check the liver numbers and see if they are still high. i have to take the lab results to my heart dr when i get them and if the cholesterol numbers are high she will prob give me something for that. i also have to keep a log of my BP and turn it in to her since she increased the milligrams on that one pill.
so anyway, it was nice seeing her again because she is one of the nicest doctors i've ever had in my entire life. i said it when i first met with her in the beginning and i'll say it again-she's awesome!
