I hope the doc will find your blood pressure improved or adjust that med. Sorry Lithium did that to you. It damaged my kidneys. Maybe that's why my blood pressure is rising year after year or maybe my high blood pressure will further affect my kidneys. Lithium was poison for me. I can't say a good thing about it.

Hubby was interested in a 2021 Toyota Rav4 Prime (plug-in hybrid). Gas is over $5 per gallon (1.55 Euros per liter) in most of Europe, so we need a fuel efficient car. It was nice, but a bit big for my taste. Probably perfect-sized or small for many Americans. Such a big car isn't ideal for some Czech narrow streets, but Brno's streets tend to be wider than Prague's. We only want one car. If we need a second set of wheels, I will use my bike or maybe buy an E-bike, and put a basket on the back. Public transportation is also pretty good there.
