" The Telltale Heart?.......or.......The Chicken Heart?..............Thump Thump.......Thump Thump......Thump Thump..............."

Good Morning;
Blood Pressure Update;
The Lisonopril/HCTZ seems to be working:
The Systolic..(maximum or upper reading)..is ranging between 140 and 117 with an average of 125.
The Diastolic..(minimum or lower)..is ranging between 85 and 75 with an average of 78.
125/78.....
I can live with that, and the slight side effects....
dry mouth and throat at times and the occasional light headedness.
One MAJOR worry eliminated.
Losing consciousness, being rushed to the E.R. with a B.P. of 200/110, and feeling as if I was cocooned in cotton candy while my mind was flowing like frozen Jello, was an experience I do not wish to repeat any time soon.
Later.............Dave
