The last 2 days, today included in this, have not been really good. Bill has been very tired and has no energy at all. He thinks that his blood pressure is really low again, and it could be that. He has had no color in his face, or he's very flushed. Of course, he's feeling the pressure of not hearing from Houston except to tell us there are problems. It seems that he has not patience with anything and every comment he makes is negative, whether it is something under his control or not. An example is our trip to Jonesboro yesterday. I was driving and he didn't like the exit I took from the parking lot, then the traffic didn't move fast enough when the light changed. He finally admitted that he didn't feel well shortly after that, although he perked up a little when we got home. Last night the weather radio went off and granted we both jump since it is in the bedroom. Yet, he didn't even find out what the alert was for, storm or tornado, but turned it off and then unplugged it! Kind of defeats the purpose of having the thing! Today he was almost manic and very jolly, even cooking breakfast. Yet at church he said he was very tired and it was all he could do to make himself get out of bed this morning!

I know that it is mostly the meds that are causing the fatigue and 1 has been cut back. But I have noticed a change in his memory with the lower dose. I also think that he has deteriorated some as far as his heart goes. If he just wasn't so hard-headed about saying when he doesn't feel well!

Well, that's my venting for the day. Maybe tomorrow will be better and we will hear from Houston soon.
