Good things about rainy Friday:
- the river Ravensbourne (outside my window) is rushing and gushing like a simile.
- I don't have high blood pressure any more.
Now I have low blood pressure. 117/78 (down from 214/140 three weeks ago).
Apparently this makes no sense. But the rapid descent of BP may explain why I've felt like a reanimated corpse for the last couple of weeks. Have put it to doctor that I would like to stop taking beta-blockers: a short life and a merry one, etc. He seemed to agree.
More tests next week, just 'cause.
Still corpse-like, so off for a nap pre-anything else.
