Thanks Doc Greg, I knew I could count on you...I am not one to cry wolf...but this type of pain is unbearable...
Back to BP...I got in touch with Neuro's office late in afternoon..didn't speak with him...she said he agreed for me to double the Verapamil...which I did at 3:30....It is now 7:30, BP is 156/113 with pulse 109....any concern there? I was suppose to already be gone...just didn't feel like going tonight...will wait until early in the a.m....thought I might feel some better in the morning...I really thought the BP & pulse would come down after 2 of the Verapamil....PCP never returned my call after 5 phone calls from me throughout the day...Spoke with her nurse set up a blood test Monday a.m. 8:30...told her if Dr. Rizvi wanted to see me before I left to go out of town I would be glad to come to office...never called me back....
If you think the BP is not borderline something to worry about, then I won't,,,if you think I should talk to my PCP prior to leaving, then I will put a call in to her tonight...what do you think? I went ahead an took the Synthroid .15mg today as usual...didn't want the blood work to be wacked out on Monday from me not taking it...
Thanks for your concern...very tired today. Guess my little heart thinks I am running or something..
