OK...so the hospital rang today (it was their call I missed last week, whilst doing the tour of the Dandenong Letters Facility) and Ive just found out...well a few hours ago, that I have to be on this medication for a total of six weeks!!! WTF?!?!? I have balloons for feet, severe swelling all over...hence my new pic (which I decided was going to stay for the period I was going to be on these BP meds...but I thought it was only going to be for a 10 - 14 day period...how wrong could I be??? Four more weeks to go...how am I going to make it...??? So Im also low in Potassium, even though I eat all the top ten foods (according to my google search this afternoon) rich in potassium! BP (Blood Pressure) is creeping up again. I have to have a reasonable level for the test to work, so its Beans, Avocados, Dried Apricots, Brussels Sprouts, Mushrooms, Nuts and Seeds...etc Now, Im not looking for a cure, thats already decided, Im having the tumor removed, once these tests are done...(yes I have Pheochromocytoma) and a very high level of the hormone Aldosterone. They need to do these tests prior to the removal. How can I get the swelling down...its been suggested to do Epsom Salts baths - what other ideas do my fb family and friends have? Much luv...Me :)
