Hopefully not a setback!
I went for a blood pressure check today, I've told you all how my BP has been the bane of my existance. Anyway, it's back up again. 
Today they took it twice, both times it was high first reading was 140/108, second time was 140/102. It's so frustrating that my blood pressure just does not respond to medication.
So I'm back on a stronger diuretic (I pee all day long) and my PCP sent me for a chest x-ray to see if I have an enlarged heart or water in/around my lungs because of the fluid retention. I haven't heard back on results, but it was late Friday afternoon when I had the x-ray -- I don't think I'll hear anything until early next week.
I sure hope this doesn't cause a setback for me. 
I hope this next round of medication works, because I'm positively sick and tired of my BP.
