Well, I had my pre-op appointment today with my GP and ran into a little problem. My blood pressure was really high, 181/112. Yikes! I have to get it down before I can have surgery. My doctor increase one of my meds and I will have a recheck on Wednesday. Hopefully it will be down. I don't want to postpone surgery. I haven't heard from the rest of the tests yet. She also gave me a prescription for tramadol to take with the tylenol I already take to help with the pain so I can maybe sleep at night. I have been waking up in pain and can't get back to sleep. Maybe if I can sleep more than 4 or 5 hours that will help my blood pressure go down. Tomorrow is my joint class.
