I’m sure you’re all just dying to know how I’m doing. I will be starting my elimination diet again next Tuesday - because the instructions say to start on Tuesday. Since getting rid of the 2 meds that can cause diarrhea, I have been doing much better in that respect. However, I continue to have some GI problems, fatigue, and generally not feel well.
Part of the problem is that my blood pressure is averaging 150/84. Tomorrow I add HCT to my Diovan. I hope that brings it down some more. Some days I know it’s the bp that’s making me feel crappy! I’m not sure what to do for high bp other than take meds and reduce salt intake. Any suggestions? Does exercise help? This isn’t a part of diabetes that I’ve had to deal with previously.
