Dad and other various and assorted things Mood

Monday, July 14, 2008

Mom and my brother took dad to Vanderbilt University to the head of nuerology. He confirmed that he does have Lewy Bodies. He would like to take on dad's case because he is doing research on it and would like to follow his progression from now till his death. (boy how that hurts my heart to write). I would love for him to go to Vanderbilt but with me being the one who drives him most of the time (my brother was on vacation) I can't promise them I can get them there. My blood pressure dropped Saturday night to 70/37 I don't need to be driving period. I can just imagine me being in down town Nashville, with that blood pressure. I would injure us all.

If any one can give me an idea on why my blood pressure is doing this please message me. I am going to the doctor tomorrow. Today it is high and I feel like my head is going to pop off, it goes from one extrmeme to the other and I just don't get it.

love and blessings to you all

hope is alive

I know things are very different in the states but are there no services for home support or something?In canada my husbands uncle had to have cancer treatment and they provided a taxi for him because obvously he could not drive.

I believe it is stress. Stress can cause our bodies to do all sorts of things, infact stress is what caused by fibro.

I wonder if Vanderbilt has a way to pick up patients and bring them to the dr office outside of Davidson county. Might want to ask the drs office and see what they say. One never knows.

Hang in there sweetie.

I wonder if this is a spiritual attack because you are calling people to pray. Just a thought!

It could easily be stress and it could be a spiritual attack too. You know that the devil doesnt want you to do Gods work. Im so glad that your going to the drs in the morning. Please let us know what the dr says. I know I have really low blood pressure too. Mines a smidge higher than yours, but not by much. I love you hun. Let us know.
Hugs and prayers....Julie

As I wrote before...stress, pain and invasive procedures can all cause blood pressures to fluctuate..please let me know what the doctor says..Love, Hugs and Prayers ALWAYS,
