Today's Stats:

BM Breakfast

Blood Glucose:     Time:  1154     Reading:  101

Blood Pressure:     Time:  1148     BP:  126/61     Pulse:  59

    Normal breakfast this morning. I administered two 2.5 mg lisinopril pills this morning.
    Her Bowel Movement occurred at 1140: Good volume; excellent consistency; very easy elimination; very easy clean-up.

Lunch

Blood Glucose:     Not taken

Blood Pressure:     Time:  1715     BP:  108/58     Pulse:  62

    Now, that's a nice afternoon pressure!
    For lunch she had a homemade pumpkin cranberry muffin and an 11.5 oz glass of V-8 juice. Later, watching a movie, she had a little over half a bag of microwave popcorn, extra butter on hers.

Dinner

Blood Glucose:     Time:  1936     Reading:  186

Blood Pressure:     Time:  1934     BP:  101/48     Pulse:  66

    Yeow! Her diastolic's a touch lower than I'd like but I have to remember The Law of BP Averages. We'll see how it shakes out over the next few days when I start the 10 mg pill once a day. Although the Rx says morning administration, I believe, it might work better for Mom at night. We'll see.
    I guess it's easy to notice the pumpkin cranberry muffin and the popcorn waving hello from her blood. She never really had a fasting time this evening. Once she awoke she nibbled on something every hour or so. Her "dinner" was about 10 oz left-over homemade bean & ham soup with all those veggies in it.
    Tonight with dinner she got two 2.5 mg lisinopril tablets, to mimic the new prescription of 10 mg/day.

Bedtime

Blood Glucose:     Not taken

Blood Pressure:     Time:  2130     BP:  123/61     Pulse:  63

    She went to bed a good hour to hour and a half earlier than usual, tonight. I didn't argue with her. She had a long reading session, though. Her light didn't go out until 2215. I think she's got jet-lag from the trip.
    I'm pleased with her blood pressure.
