I’ve been agonising over the subject of this week’s vlog. I have three subjects in mind, but they are all quite complex and I don’t think I’ll be able to do them justice in a 5 or 6 minute video. I have spent most of the day researching them online and still haven’t made a decision.
I have to go to Aldborough surgery again this afternoon. When I saw the doctor on Tuesday he took my blood pressure, which was a little on the high side, so he wanted me to see the nurse today to have it taken again to see if it was just a one-off. Although it wasn’t as high as it was on Tuesday, it was higher than they would like – they are going to provide me with a machine to take home with me so that I can take my own blood pressure at home (twice daily, for a week) to see if it is more normal when I’m in my own home.
I try to make some more progress with my neighbour’s safari holiday video, but my heart isn’t in it and I just end up feeling irritated by it – so I give it up for the moment.
Tremor is still in my left leg, but it’s not as bad as it was yesterday so I won’t make any DBS adjustments just now. The ache in my jaw is also less painful than yesterday, which is good!
