I Had No Idea

I’ve been in a real brain fog lately. I found out that my potassium is still low after increasing my dosage. I’m going to have to take a new form of it so that I can absorb it correctly. It’s an tablet that dissolves in water like Alka-Seltzer. So feeling weak from the lower potassium has me doing all sorts of crazy things or should I say crazier than I normally do?

Today I had an appointment with my cardiologist. I had just been there the day before with my Mom who was having high blood pressure in the 170′s. I left the house in plenty of time but I kept thinking I had missed the medical building. In actuality I hadn’t even drove near it yet. So here I was doing U-Turns, driving into parking lots so I could make turns, and asking myself where was I?

That’s a scary thought when you’re in your own neighborhood. I could understand asking myself about things I don’t know about like what type of brake pads my car needs, or what HDMI cables are, or how to ftp a plugin to my blog.

I finally arrived for my appointment. I was about 10 minutes late. I thought my blood pressure would be hight but it was very good. I am scheduled for an echocardiogram next week because I have mitral valve prolapse and rheumatoid arthritis. So add another doctor’s appointment to my “to do” list.
