Guest guest Posted August 2, 2011 Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 Holy Hannah girl! You're not going to go without bp meds are you? ...hugs, worried Cait Re: What's going on? I had a regular doctor's appointment today. Unfortunately, I had an episode where every time they took my pulse, it was somewhere over 100. It happens occasionally, and testing has revealed that nothing was wrong. But this is a new doc - just started seeing her last month. So she ran an EKG, took my pulse several times, and went and actually looked things up, before finally coming to the conclusion that it may just be from the Amitryptilene or my Geodon, but she's doing more in depth testing for my thyroid tomorrow. I have to say I love this doc, she actually spends time with you and tries to figure stuff out, as opposed to the docs that I've seen at the Medicaid clinic, but I pay for it - she takes Medicare, but not Medicaid, so I'm responsible for the copay. I told her about my stomach pain, and she looked up all of my previous endoscopies, and ordered a test for H. pylori (I've tested negative for that before), and is switching my GERD medication to see if it will help (hopefully the insurance will cover it).Tina What's happening in your lives? Or at the moment? With your MS? With your weather? cool hugs for a hot day SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2011 Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 I still have some pills. When I get down to a week's worth left I will get demanding and I'm sure something will happen. I won't go without medication for the high blood pressure because I know what happens. Don't worry 'bout me:)hugs to you Cait SharonThis email is a natural hand made product.
