I am so glad you are doing better. I can relate to your problem. My husband is 78 years old, has had double bypass, diabetes, 2nd stage kidney disease. He takes about 10 to 12 prescriptions a day. He does NOT feel good. When ever he goes to a doctor (he has 3), they will take him off one pill and give him 2 more.

Yesterday he was feeling awful I took his blood pressure and it was 86/46. Too many blood pressure meds!

That is the bad side, on the good side, no one in his family has ever lived to be 78! Every day is a blessing.

My BP was almost gone when I got to the ER, they had to insert a catheter in my carotid for the transfusion, it was the only thing they could find.
