My plan for dealing with my BP is to do what I'm told and just endure until the next appt. Apparently my friends feel that isn't a good plan. I'm not bad enough to be inpatient but not anywhere near stable and its really concerning to them especially since I live alone and could get into a lot of trouble. So to pacify them I called my dr. She is on vacation until next week Monday and my appt is Tues. The on-call dr doesn't want to do anything with my background and told me to wait it out and to try not to drink alcohol.

LOL.

So much for helping. I'm curled into a ball in my shower in the dark and apparently as long as I feel safe there it is ok. I'm in the dark because I swear there is someone in my apartment trying to get me and can't convince myself that that isn't true.

This is going to be a long week.

So the on-call doc is an idiot. I'm sorry you're having such a hard time. I know it seems like a long time until that appointment next Tues but you'll make it. Sending you lots of good energy.
