I always give mine a quick run before it's needed, any problems then get sorted before the cold weather hits.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread

I was so nervous going to the doctor's today to get a mole on my forehead checked out, he looked at it and told me 100% it wasn't dodgy, so I left with a huge weight off my shoulders removed.

I also took the opportunity to discuss my high blood pressure as they never got back to me so I now have to take 1 pill a day, let's see how that turns out.

This is my first ever on going prescription I have ever taken.

It took a while for them to sort my blood pressure. Like you I started on 1 medication which didn't bring it down enough, so they doubled the dose but that didn't agree with me. They ended up adding a second medication and returning the first to the original dose. They subsequently increased the dose of the second medication alongside the original dose/medication and since then everything's been spot on.

I'm hoping mine will be straight forward, I'll take readings again in 2 weeks.
