Three Quarter Stat Day:

A.M. Blood Glucose:
    Time:  1349
    Reading:  147
A.M. Blood Pressure:
    Time:  1356
    BP:  142/70
    Pulse:  52

P.M. Blood Glucose:
    Time:  1956
    Reading:  144
P.M. Blood Pressure:
    Not taken

    Breakfast: Normal holiday breakfast.
    Lunch: Peanuts and coffee.
    Dinner: Finished the tuna casserole. Also gave her 10 mg of furosemide with her dinner. Although her legs and feet look fine, she was breathing harder than usual, today, so much so that I've had her on portable oxygen this evening, without any sign of internal tissue congestion. Call it a hunch, but I think she needs a little drying out.
    Retired at 0030, 11/18/06. She was up and down and up and down between 0030 and 0230, going to the bathroom to pee. A couple of times she came out to the livingroom for company and chatting. She also read in bed a couple of times. Light finally out at 0245. Needless to say, I'm going to let her sleep in until 1445 "tomorrow", if she doesn't get up on her own.
