Oh my wonderful BP

As I said in another post, I started my new blood pressure medicine last Saturday. I had the worst headache and felt weird but I thought I was getting sick along with everyone else. Sunday my hands were swelling a little-still had the headache and that night. Monday-light headed, etc. (still thought I was catching something) Tues-felt better, Wed-felt swollen and puffy, face felt puffy, lips felt swollen and puffy. I looked online at my bp medicine. It said "Do not take if you are allergic to sulfa drugs". I am allergic to sulfa. Wonderful! It also said if your lips start swelling and face, etc contact your doctor immediately an allergic reaction could be fatal. Here I am thinking, Oh great I am about to die. I didn't call the dr. immediately. (I have had enough of hospitals lately and knew they would just stick an IV in my arm). I drove to moms to see if I could check my bp to see if I was dying or not. They weren't home and were not answering their cell phones either. Couldn't find their bp checking machine. I called my Dr. and told her I didn't think my medicine was working very well. She called in another one. I drove to Walmart to check my bp and it was borderline. Thats good for me. I walked around, picked out a paint color for my kitchen cabinets. I started losing my puffiness and I went to pick Brady up from school..
My newest (third) bp medicine has given me a headache. I want my first one back, at least I felt normal and not with my head pounding.

My friend Cheryn called me tonite! I haven't heard from her in ages!! Yay! We went to college together-she is a teacher, which I would be now if I would have stayed in school with her.
My friend Michele called me last night. We talk quite often. She lives in Wisconsin.

I am going to go try to do my Turbo Jam workout tape. My head is hurting but Brady and I ate Pizza Inn buffet tonite and I really need to get back into some of my other clothes.
