I really appreciate all of you! I've decided to see if some immediate diet changes and exercise routing will change my blood pressure before jumping on the meds. I am scheduled to go back and take some more tests in the next couple of weeks. I'm hoping that my spike in numbers was an irregularity...hoping... we'll see. In any case, the last few days of rest has been awesome. I feel so much better. Thanks everyone for your notes and prayers. I really appreciate all of you!

One of the things I've noticed is how I have to do certain things more consciously and not wait until I feel like it. And, I've gone down 2 notches on my belt -- that's a good and healthy thing.
