We're about to drop

off the homepage already, and the other thread's already gone!!! I guess we must have had a busy week on the boards.

I had to check my blood pressure today because I felt funny... it was very low with a very high pulse (101!). So I spent part of the day feeling like I was constantly out of breath and this isn't the first time in recent days. I have a nasty feeling it's excess blood loss and I'm not going to go into that except to say that Flo isn't to blame and maybe Becky would understand better than most. So again I need to be more careful on my medication, though I have been doing quite well recently. Better than I was.

Meantime I give myself permission to eat some extra crisps (chips) and gulp down chicken essence if need be, as well as lie down if the room starts spinning! Right now it seems to have worked and I feel human again. Better check the pressure. DH decided we're taking the machine with us, and his brother can buy a new one for the parents since he's so rich (and we're not!).

Since I don't feel like eating much recently I'm drinking more - wonder whether that's also responsible for the low blood pressure, plus it's been unbelivably humid here and my home is NOT cool! Sad I ate well yesterday, but not much at all the previous two days. Probably too hot to eat.

Kerri.
