Oh Sue how beautiful! I'm so glad your enjoying your weekend!
But yes please rest. I know how you feel! My 16 year old granddaughter and I got out and did the shopping. I shopped the smaller stores, she did the bigger stores. I went to the drug store for some new make up, vitamins and a jug of water. Came home, put it all away (I'm still moving slower) but oh my back and my legs were hurting like never before. Took tylenol, but it didnt touch it. Sats stayed up pretty good but even tho 94-97 at rest, still 90 and 91 on first movement and then rises. Dips again, when I first sit. Yesterday was the first time i saw an 89 creep in after i sat down from being "active". Only checked twice yesterday but just watched to see what's "normal" right now. I dont understand. No breathlessness, no wheezing, not blue, but sats of 89 90 and 91?

Hi again Sue. Sunday evening. Day was definitely different. My sats were good. However, I noticed still, my heart rate was up but getting worse. Standing making a salad. Felt my chest racing. Put on the oximeter and my heart rate was 140. It was also fluttering around today and I was not myself. A lot of lower back pain on one side close to the thigh. Did some digging on my new bp med amlodipine. I went on a site and a lot of people wrote of their experiences with this drug. Most said it started great. And as time progressed and it got into their systems things got worse. I always had anxiety but not like this. My ativan hasnt helped like it usually does. I read over 100 accounts of people who have the same symptoms as me, one is frequent night urination. I rarely go at night till now. So I'm wondering if the high heart rate which is getting higher with no extra output is from the amlodipine.
