Why Me????????

 DoctorWell, I am totally convinced I have been voodoo'd by someone or something. There's just too much bad luck flowing in my direction. Is God testing me, cause if he is I sure hope the tests are over, lol. I don't know how much more bad news I can take. I go to the dentist yesterday. Yea, I was gonna get the rest of the teeth pulled, and finally be able to get my dentures. Well, he gets those 2 teeth to numb finally, woohooooooo. But before he starts to pull them out, he has to check blood pressure. (I've never had a blood pressure problem) Well, he puts me on the BP machine, and walks away. In about a minute the alarm on BP machine goes off, he comes back in room and says ok Cindy, I ain't pulling no teeth today,grrrrrrrrrrr. I said what's wrong, he says your blood pressure is too high. He waits a few minutes, turns on BP machine again and it's 174/110. YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!! So, he says no teeth pulling can be done today. He asks me if I drove there or was I dropped off. I told him my daughter had my car and dropped me off. So, I called her to come get me. The dentist said go directly to my family doctor. When my daughter Emma got there, she drove me to my doctor, which was 2 blocks from my dentist. They take me in right away. Another BP check and it's now 180/110. He put me in a room and gave me an EKG, the results were not good he says. So they did blood work, and he wants me to go have a Nuclear Cardio Stress tests. I am scheduled for that next wednesday and thursday. It's apparently a 2day testing thing. He put me on a blood pressure pill called LOTREL 5/20mg. I have to take 1 a day. He wants me to come back in 2 weeks. He said I cannot go back to the dentist until he finds out what is going on with my heart. I told him about the light chest pains I sometimes get and the 2 black out spells I've had, he knows about the cancer and being in remission now and I told him I have a very hyper 4 yr old daughter. He says Cindy, with all you've gone through and now your BP being so high, you are a walking time BOMB!!!!!!!!! He says take the BP medicine and try to avoid stress. LMAO, yea right!!!!!!!!!              Huh? 2So, now I have to wait for dentures, wait for tests, wait for results, and he said avoid stress!!! How much more can I be given to handle? I keep saying, Why me?? Why do I have to deal with all this? Like I said I'm either being tested by God or I've been voodoo'd by someone, lol.

I tried to write in my journal last night but my DSL would'nt connect. I think it had something to do with the really bad storms we had last night. A whole lot of lightning, wind and heavy downpours all through the night. I finally gave up after an half hour of trying and I went to bed. I'm glad it's back up and running now, cause man would I be stressed if it were'nt, lol. Well, gonna go now, take care all and have a great day.

  1. I know how you feel!!  I'm only 39 and my blood pressure problems started right after my son had brain surgery.  It wasn't because of weight either.  I still have problems with my pressure.  The docs tell me to avoid stress.  How do you do that when your a mom??????  I hope you have a good Friday.

  2. WOW what a turn of events for you!!!  I hope all of your tests come out good, though.  Maybe it was just a bit high from visiting the DENTIST?? That would make mine skyrocket!!! Maybe next week with the medicine it'll come back down.  I hope so.
