    I am at home with nothing to do. I am sure the brain will kick in shortly and put me to good use. But until then...

    Did they ask you to make a diary of your daily activities? No point in the machine registering high BP if you were marching down a beach.

    Nope, never got anything like that. But when I went came home yesterday I researched the monitor and yours is the same info I found online.

    I asked when I went back this morning, and for some reason they'd assumed I wasn't doing anything yesterday until I told them I'd been very busy running around The Curragh.

    Then the batteries died last night, which I replaced but the machine never logged the previous readings so I only got readings from 22:20 last night, which were all very high, the highest was 168/104.

    But on the manual cuff I was 135/75 less than 30 minutes later.

    So I've to wear the monitor again next Monday and in the meantime I've to manually log my readings.

    Pain in the ass because with all the exercise I take I'm stumped as to how to lower the numbers if they're high.

    In the meantime I was sent home from the clinic and told to relax, and no coffee :(

    If we could only swap to even out! I have low bp, and no matter how hydrated I stay, or what I seem to do, it doesn’t really raise. Occasionally when I do get sick and they take my bp, and it’s like say 115/80 they tell me it’s perfect but normal for me would be usually 80/60.

    Snap. When I went to the doctors on Friday my bp was 110/80 and apart from when I have been anaphalatic, I have never seen it that high. Then yesterday it was 110/70 and I said to the doctor that I had been a bit worried about Friday's bp and she was saying, it is perfectly normal. I explained not for me! She was laughing when I told her mine is usually around 90/60 or 95/60.

    My whole family have low bp and my parents got one of those home measuring devices. We play a game to see who has the lowest at the table sometimes at family gatherings. Yes, we are weird.

    I find that if I don't have enough salt in a day I get dizzy so tend to add lots of salt to things.

    Finally started to feel well again this afternoon and evening but now pains are back in me belly. Dammit.

    Going to work tomorrow no matter what as I have only tomorrow and Thursday left to get everything sorted for working remotely.

    On my bed, about to get some zzz. Chat to ya the marra hai.
