Hi Everyone-

I have had a really tough month.  In fact I just dropped me econ class
yesterday.  I am going to try and make a long story simi-short.  They put me
on Atenolol for my bp like 3 or 4 weeks ago and then I went to being
extreemly spastic.  So tony scraped the atenolol and put me on Zestril along
with the Hydroclorothyzide that I was already taking but I was so spastic
that he had to put me on diazapam (Valium), because I was almost tipping my
wheelchair over sideways.  We were going to consult a nurologist about all of
this but then I had a major anxiety atack about going to a nuro because of
all the bad experiences I have had in the past with specialists.  Infact we
were having to medicate so much for the anxiety problem that it wiped out the
spastisty problem so what would be the point of going to a nurologist for
spastisty if there was no spastisty (this was last week--friday).  Anyway
last tuesday I talked to Billy who is my FP in texas and updated him on the
situation and he sugested a few meds for the spastisty to discuss with Tony
which I did this past friday.  So Dr. Joseph has now put me on colazapam (not
shure I spelled that right).  The huge spasams are still not compleetly gone
but  they are better then they were.  Needless to say my joints are not to
happy about all the spasticity. Anyway am going back to see Dr. Joseph on the
7th of November--or sooner if need be.

Needless to say that is why you have not seen me on the list in ages.  I
think this is getting better.  Hay at least we finaly have my blood pressure
down it was like 120/70 friday-- of course the funny thing about valuium is
it will also lower blood pressure and I had taken 10mg 2 times a day for 2
days because of anxiety (in addition to my hypertension meds) before they
took that reading.  So question is is it really down or was it just all that
valium.  Trick or Treet?

Yours,
Anee
