It just doesn't end

I stayed home again today to go back to the doctor, because I still have a sore throat -- after twelve days!
The doctor gave me an antibiotic (they told me it was viral last week), but to frost my cake, I've developed high blood pressure.

We've got to get you a punching bag so you can just beat the snot out of something!!!! You must be so frustrated and sick and tired of being sick and tired! I wonder if they still make those goofy clown punching bags that were around when we were kids? Hang in there sweetie! Let's hope that antibiotic kicks in before Altan! Annie

Ah, the ways of the human body can be mysterious... even to your doctors, it seems!
I have hypertension, too, and am on meds. Have they prescribed these for you? Not a wonderful condition to have, but the meds control it well and I actually remember to take them, so it could be worse. I also found that losing even 20 pounds improved the situation markedly, so one more reason to fight the good fight with the scale. I'm looking forward to the day those little pills will be part of my sordid past.
Sodium also makes a big difference for me, both with weight and blood pressure (water retention!). Which is probably why I'm the biggest baddest boring-est poster always droning on about watching your sodium intake... Hmmm, maybe you can join me in the cause <>?
As for your poor throat, I'm hoping that this week's version of the cure finally does it for you. Take care, Mary!
