Blood Pressure:     Time:  1010     BP:  151/71     Pulse:  52

    I don't know what made me think that taking her blood pressure on this morning would be different than any other. It's always difficult to get a good reading on her in the morning because she seldom comes to a "rest" until a good half hour after breakfast. As well, she hates having her stats taken in the morning and is always argumentative. This doesn't affect her blood sugar reading, of course, but it always affects her blood pressure. Oh well. I tried. I suppose I'll continue, occasionally, to try, especially while we're working on brief episodes of Congestive Heart Failure.

Today's Stats:

Breakfast

Blood Glucose:     Time:  1158     Reading:  98

Blood Pressure:     No longer taken at this     time unless necessary

Dinner

Blood Glucose:     Time:  1822     Reading:  170

Blood Pressure:     No longer taken at this     time unless necessary

    I know where this high reading came from. This is the day that my mother decided she wanted a left over piece of chocolate cake for breakfast. So, I gave it to her. Thus, I made sure she had an early, nutritious, dinner. Out of curiosity, I decided to take her blood sugar, knowing that her medication would work it all out.
