Well, you guys will be happy to know that Doc went back to the doctor today for a review of things so far, and his blood pressure was MUCH better.

I'm just glad we caught things in time.

I thought I would give a brief update. I haven't worked but a couple of days since the incident. I took the first week completely off and parts of the second for us to visit my mother (and the Chaffin Barn dinner theatre) and to wait for a plumber who still hasn't arrived. :(

After some initial medicine adjustments, I seem to have leveled out on the blood pressure medicine and my BP is regularly in the 130-140 over 80-90 range. This is where my doctor wants it. Spooky and I are trying to walk more and we have walked about 4 miles the past two days. I have lost a little weight since that Friday but have more to go.

Thanks for all the well wishes and thinking of me and Spooky during all this. :)

Hi doc,

I'm sorry I've only just seen this thread and haven't commented before, but I'm delighted to see that you're on the road to recovery.

Take good care
