About an hour after my last post, my blood pressure went really high again and I got really dizzy. I called my PCP to see if I could come in early, she wanted me to go to the ER by ambulance. One of the woman that I've gotten to be friends with at work traveled with me until Jim could get there.
I was there for about 4 hours, they gave me something by IV, increased my Lisinopril, and I'm on a heart monitor for the next 24 hours - I go back tomorrow to have it taken off.
I'm really scared guys, I feel like I'm doing everything I'm supposed to be doing, but the blood pressure keeps creeping up.
At least work is being very good about it. I had only been back for a day when this happened and when I told my boss that I'd be out for a couple of more, she said that they wanted me well and not to push it - I had been afraid that since I have only been there a couple of months that my job might be in jeopardy. At least I don't have to worry about that.
I really believe in the power of prayer, and I'd appreciate you keeping me in yours while the doctors try to get me healthy again.
