Guest guest Posted February 2, 2006 Report Share Posted February 2, 2006 peace and blessings to you Kathleen. I hope things will settle down real soon and everyone will be well again quickly.

I went to the doctor and my blood pressure is up again, so he put me back on the same medication that I worked so hard to get off of a year ago. Then the older granddaughter (who lives in my town) had strep throat a month ago. Two weeks ago her Daddy got it. One week ago her Mama got it. Their Daddy had to go out of town on business even though he tried his best to get out of it that same week Mama got sick. The girls came and stayed with me while he was gone and Mama was sick. Last Friday I saw my doctor and he said I have bronchitis. He gave me an antibiotic. I had it filled and found out it conflicts with my blood pressure medication. Called in about that and the pharmacy drug their feet getting me something different until TODAY when they called it was ready to be picked up! I was too busy to keep on their case to get me something better. Guess what? Nearly a week later with no medication and I'm better now, thank you very much. They can keep their medicine! Then this week Grandpa (my dh) decided to wake up with thrombophlebitis in one leg on the same morning that the same granddaughter woke up with strep again! The bright spot in all of this was that I was able to take both of them to the same doctor at the same time. We all use the same doctor. Everyone is better right now.
