Went to the Doctor yesterday to get some answers.
I found out that I have fluid in both of my ears. He put me on a steroidal nose spray and told me to give it a month to see if it will clear up. If not we go to plan B.
He agreed with my "Reflux Theory". I'm taking Apple Cider Vinegar Tablets (homeopathic treatment) which seems to be working for me. If it's the placebo effect I'm good with that too.
He told me not to take any pain medication other than Tylenol (just in case the ringing is from toxicity to aspirin or iuprophen) .
My BP was up again. I brought my monitor and took it right after the nurse and it was just about the same.....so I now know that it is an accurate reading. Once again I seem to have "White Coat Syndrome" my blood pressure always goes up in the doctor's office!
He changed my Lipitor for Crestor (We had a year's supply donated to the mission so it would be free for me rather than the 136 dollars a month we are paying for Lipitor.)
He was pleased with my weight loss and naturally encouraged me to continue.
He also gave me a perscription for a year of refills with the medications I've been taking.
He approved my diet, my goals and agreed to do blood work after my 12 weeks.
It was a good visit. I got answers, now it's wait and see.
