Today's Stats:

Breakfast

Blood Glucose:     Time:  1100     Reading:  107

Blood Pressure:     Time:  1131     BP:  111/61     Pulse:  61

    Okay, so it must have been the "back grabbing" that was causing her high blood pressure yesterday. Otherwise, everything looks good. I did not give her Benefiber® this morning, as we will be having Cobb salad tonight, which will include olives and, of course, a bunch of other stuff with lots of fiber.

Lunch

Blood Glucose:     Time:  Not taken

Blood Pressure:     Time:  1656     BP:  129/59     Pulse:  58

    She had, once again, Marie Callendar's Chicken Pot Pie Soup with added sweet curry, chopped green onions, celery and carrots and added chicken. I'm a little concerned about her blood pressure creeping up, but maybe it was just a blip.

Dinner

Blood Glucose:     Time:  1936     Reading:  140

Blood Pressure:     Time:  1934     BP:  146/61     Pulse:  64

    At Mom's request, she had the rest of the potato sausage soup from a couple of nights ago and a piece of chocolate cake. I will be checking her blood pressure before she goes to bed.

Bedtime

Blood Glucose:     Time:  Not taken

Blood Pressure:     Time:  2134     BP:  151/72     Pulse:  64

    Needless to say, I gave her a third lisinopril this evening. I'm not sure what's causing this high blood pressure bout.
