It's been a while since
It's been a while since I posted anything. I'm still having the same old problems. My blood pressure has been up 156/114. It was still too high to go to the dentist. I had to make an unexpected trip to the doctor because they were concerned with my high blood pressure. While I was in the office they took my blood pressure and it was still up but not that high. I was put on another BP medication. While I was there I told them that I had been on the antidepressant for 2 weeks and didn't feel any different. So she said to double the dose to 20 mg. So I guess I will try that and see if it helps me. I am still so tired all the time. The fatigue can get to be overwhelming. If I do anything physical in the heat it just wipes me out. One good thing. I managed to get my head out of this brain fog long enough to reconcile with the guy I have been seeing for the past year. We will be flying to LA in a few days to go to his sister's wedding. I get to meet the family. I am real worried about my Addisons causing me problems while I am away from home. I will be in a strange environment and not able to rest when I need to. The heat may present a problem too. I dont know. Wish me luck . I will be gone for 11 days. So I will write when I get back.
