Today's Stats:

Breakfast
Blood Glucose:
    Time:  1123
    Reading:  107
Blood Pressure:
    Time:  1136
    BP:  134/63
    Pulse:  55

    As usual, I'll keep an eye on her blood pressure.

Lunch
Blood Glucose:
    Not taken
Blood Pressure:
    Time:  1736
    BP:  149/67
    Pulse:  58

    Yes, she received her "third" dose of 2.5 mg lisinopril at lunch, along with a banana, 6 pimiento stuffed green olives and 11.5 oz V-8 juice.
    Although she's been having this bout of high (for her) blood pressure, she is not exhibiting any signs of CHF.

Non-stat BM Dinner
    I can't remember why I didn't take dinner stats. Dinner occurred, though, at our usual late day time: We had some of the leftover baked ham, one piece corn on the cob and split the piece of apple pie that was left.
    Her bowel movement occurred at 2015, just before dinner: Good, although disappointing volume; excellent consistency; very easy elimination; very easy clean-up.
    Because I'm concerned that she's backing up, I gave her a two tablespoon dose of Phillip's Milk of Magnesia before she retired.
