It’s sickyear for me apparently….
Starting off with the palsy I thought that was enough for a while (like a couple of years or so). My body thinks differently. Since about two weeks I can’t really do anything without getting some sleep afterwards. I wake up in the morning with a heartbeat of about 100. I take a shower, call my boss to explain why I won’t be back any time soon, and have to sleep for about 2 hours because I’m exhausted.
The doctor tells me my bloodpressure is too high. He’s ordered some bloodtests and an ECG and I’m scheduled for a 24-hour bloodpressure observation. When that is done there should be some more information on what it can be.
Going to the doctor was a relief in itself. At least he thinks there are some leads as to what is wrong. Strangely enough as time goes on that relief becomes less. I still don’t have a clue what it is or, more importantly, how to remedy it. I’m afraid waiting is all I can do.
Every morning now I get up with the idea that it is going better. This morning I did some rearranging of the living room cupboards, changed some of the doors to get it all a bit more childproof. After doing that I had to sleep again. It’s not getting any better really….
So until the Doc comes up with something I’m afraid all I can do is just see how it goes and hope for the best. Not really a problem; I’m quite good at hoping for the best

Hmm, not really. Just that the 24-hour bloodpressure observation is finally done this monday. And then we wait some more for the results. It sucks, really. All that waiting around and I can imagine it being worse for Croga than for me
