Pressure Drop

Alternative title: the drugs do work. 

On Monday, I had to go to the doctor to get vamped as my friend Nikki says.  They want to monitor my kidney to make sure the Candesartan isn’t fucking my kidneys.  Before taking the blood, the nurse took my blood pressure and noted it was a lot better. 

I’ve also started cutting down on my sugar intake, mostly by drinking Doctor Pepper Zero instead of the full version. 

I’m on a train!  Literally.  I’m heading home for the holidays.  I’m going to be going to the Cove game on Saturday, where I might be responsible for my nephew.  I don’t think I should be responsible for a trip to the shops…

I’ve got the last two episodes of Wolf Hall to watch and die other stuff I’ve downloaded as well.  So, I’ll go watch them.

Sorry to read your kidney health might be a bit shit and you are having to make concessions on Dr. Peppper’s finest brew. I made myself an advent calendar out of 24 cans of it this year though must admit my 40-year-old body isn’t taking the sugar like it used to in my college days! Fortunately the Zero version of DP is quite acceptable these days.
