The Hobo Camp Fire Is going well #VI.. Stop In!!!

[Running Bear]

Had a blood sugar crash this morning despite having had breakfast with plenty of starch. It was 63 when I checked it and went to 41 in short order. Ate a can of chili to bring it back up. Lots of protein and other things I needed. Level came back up to 107. Blood pressure is high though. Why? I don't know. When I checked it the reading was 160 over 110, pulse 92. Had a doc appointment this afternoon anyway so I had him check it out. He asked if I've been having any dizziness (other than what I usually have), headaches, nausea, chest pain? Nope. So he did an examination, had an EKG done and was as much in the dark as he was before. So he did what most docs would do in such a case. He doubled my BP meds.

Good news is the van ran good today and it wasn't hard to start after being parked for a little while. Back during the summer it took an act of congress to get it to start after being parked thirty minutes to a couple of hours. Any gas, starter fluid, alcohol, etc would boil up into the carb until the engine cooled down. Today it fired on the first crank. Head scratcher.

I'm feeling better now though my BP is still high.
