Just curious, you don't use any kind of OTC inhaler do you? Primatene etc.

Get that under control quick and get out of there, but not before posting pics of your nurse, of course.

Nope, and I gave up the smokes a long time ago along with really laying off the booze.

That's after doing nothing all day to get it to come down. I guess the Carvedilol I'm on isn't working all that well.

I think the “110” is cause for concern.

Stupid question for our medically inclined folks. Wouldn't donating a pint of blood at the blood bank lower your blood pressure? Lower volume of blood in the same enclosed area seems like it would result in lower pressure.

Edarbyclor was working great, but I can't get it from the VA, my insurance won't cover it, and there is no generic.
