140s/90s is TOO HIGH! You need to get that pressure DOWN - don't wait.

I'm giving it until Thursday. I have the liver ultrasound and if my BPs still elevated, I'll get in to the doc AGAIN to get it regulated.

Got the stitches out and my foot looks and feels good. He thinks I've developed a hairline stress fracture, down on my foot where my toes come out, due to de-bone mineralization. So, I'm back in the walking boot for three more weeks. I can get out and walk more, being careful. It's to the point that I don't even care anymore. Bring it on!

Judy, THANKS. The weather is beautiful today and I actually got out at lunchtime for a short walk. It was awesome, being the most I've walked in six months or so!

I'm so glad that you're able to get around a little better than you were. Too bad about the fracture but it will heal quickly.
