Oh goodness! ER for the foot might be a blessing in disguise if it found unknown high BP!

She knows about the high blood pressure and is on medication for it but it’s been so good lately she’s actually been considering stopping! (hasn’t yet thankfully)

I always think I can stop mine and it never works out for me lol. If she's in pain that would definitely cause it to go up more! I hope it's not too long before she's all taken care of

Mom just now “I’m hopeful we’ll get in soon” Me, this having been my 6th ER trip in recent years “mhmm” I know if she gets in soon it’ll be the high blood pressure that gets her in. I really do hope they take it seriously.

Oh dear. I hope the wait isn’t too terrible (I know it will be somewhat terrible) and that she gets good care.

Me too!! It would be another over nighter in the ER once she took her blood pressure at bedtime if it was this high. And I would have been INSISTING on an ambulance, which would have been a fight because she’s dead against it 😅
