It's been a month since my blood pressure scare began. Had a check-up this morning.
In the past month I have:
1. started taking hydrochlorothorazide daily
2. cut out all caffeine (well, except for a little chocolate here and there)
3. cut out all added salt
4. nearly cut out all alcohol (one beer in one month!)
5. increased exercise (OK, not by much, but a little!)
6. increased fruits & veggies on a daily basis
7. (for the high cholesterol) cut out eggs
8. (again for cholesterol) had oatmeal 27 out of the 30 days
And today my blood pressure was NORMAL.
Now I go back in 6 months to check it, and the cholesterol, again. And I am supposed to lose some weight, too.
Feeling pretty good right now!
