I might as well smoke.  Being on this Clonidine for a high BP is absurd!  I went to ER, yesterday thought perhaps I was having a heart attack or symptoms, or a stroke.   

They could not find anything wrong.
This Bp been on 4 full days retaining water (which I do not retain water as a rule).   Huffing and puffing, for no specific reason other than the new bp.    Doc tells me via phone today he is increasing it!!!

I say WHAT!
Not to him, but the nurse; said they are running out of options .   I do not believe this is true. If it is, 

I dont want this life.  I will just smoke and be done, with it.  Not being able to even get off the couch from being weak from the BP med....

How long is temporary.  Yep pitty party!   Actually the blues! 
Been a whole month  since I quit  always feel better a lil" what is going on? Regardless of how long I smoked, I have never been this miserable? This doc is an Internal doc, so he would know what he's doing right, with BP pressure meds???

Just plain lost
