Sorry those of you having health issues

HUGS to all struggling with bipolar issues.

My mood has been stable of late though I do have the flat affect - no highs, no lows. I don't mind the no lows part but I wish I could feel happy at least...sigh. Pdoc doesn't seem to think this is a problem...GRR!

This morning, I did pilates, and I had my 6 month well checkup at the PCP. Ridiculous to go since I haven't had any physical health problems or illnesses in forever but I do need the occasional referral renewal for the dermatologist, rheumatologist and the PCP will not do them if I don't go in every 6 months. I did find out that blood pressure readings are a quirky thing. First time the tech took my blood pressure it was 157/88! I couldn't believe it as I NEVER had blood pressure so high. She took it less than 2 minutes later, this time with my arm elevated, and it was 122/75 which is pretty much my norm. The PCP did give me a referral for an X-ray for my foot which still is not right after slamming the top of it into a doorframe around 3 weeks ago, so I have that scheduled next week.

I plan to go to the library with my daughter later today, but there is some plastic cover under my car that has come completely unbolted and is nearly touching the ground, so it makes me very anxious to drive. H needs to order bolts for it. My car is 20 years old so it's at that stage where things are starting to fall apart, but getting a new car, even a good used new car would stretch our finances more than we'd like. The next car we buy though is likely to go to H as his car is 30 yr old.
