I haven't been watching my blood pressure, but I wasn't feeling right the other night, so I took out my blood pressure cuff and my b.p. was 197/128...yikes. 120/80 is normal.

I immediately took the meds that I have, should something like this happen and now it is 136/77. Meds get me a little tired, but I guess, since my b.p. goes up in the winter, I'll just have to deal with it.

On top of bipolar and thyroid issues....I guess I shouldn't complain. At least b.p. meds and such are there for us today.

Anyway, I am glad that I took my b.p. before I had a stroke or heart attack!!
