Default Update:I feel so much better today!

As you know, I have been having dizzy spells. Yesterday, I went back to work and had my coworkers check my BP. It was 90/53!
No wonder I have been feeling so bad. I had to work 12 hours yesterday, too....needless to say, it was an extremely looooong 12 hours
I didn't take my BP med yesterday or today. I will continue to monitor my BP at work and at home (my Mom's a nurse, also). If it starts creeping back up I will call my MD....today I feel so much better! Almost "normal". I just wanted to share that . Thanks for all your input!!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Glad to hear you're doing better.
Don't wait until your BP starts creeping up to call your dr, though.
Call ASAP, keep him in the loop and let him know what happened. Ask him at what dose and when you should start if and when your BP goes back up again, that way, you'll be prepared better.
You know, from my(dr) side, if something happens to our patients, and they tell us about it a lot later, we feel pretty bad--aren't we here for you to help you, be there for you whenever, aren't we good enough???? kind of thinking.
