Hello everybody. Sorry for the lack of posts recently but life has been a little crazy. Most of you know I had shoulder surgery last Monday. Well ever since then things have not been quite right. What I probably didn't tell you was that they had to keep me after the surgery for a few hours because my blood pressure was running dangerously high. They eventually got it to a point where they let me go home but even then and for several days after the surgery I never felt right. Well yesterday morning I went to see the surgeon for a follow up and we really didn't talk about the shoulder because my blood pressure was once again dangerously high. He wanted to send me to the Emergency Room but he was able to get one of his Dr. friends on the phone who could see me that afternoon. Needless to say it's not good. I've been put on blood pressure medication and he told me if I didn't make some changes (diet, exercise, etc) I wouldn't be around in 5-10 years. I had blood work done today and I get an EKG on Monday.
So there you have it. I have hit a wall. I need to make some serious changes and I'm scared. More later I'm sure.
