Sorry for the rant I just get so frustrated and I know you do, too. I hope the medicine change helps. It's just impossible to feel better with low blood pressure.

Hey Betsi, rant all you want, I know EXACTLY how you feel. Gary is not taking the new asthma meds the doc prescribed back in November, because, as he says, "I can't tell they are doing a darned thing for me" He's very hard-headed. He knew darned well he should take the meds with food, but if you are not going to eat breakfast, well then you just can't take them with food, can you??? GRRRRRRR

He took his medications after we ate lunch today at about 11:00 this morning and when I got home (~5:00), his blood pressure was 118/80, much improved from 78/42 this morning, don't cha think!!! Sometimes I think he is from Missouri - he's gotta "see it" (or experience it) before he will believe it!!! (again)
