I obviously cannot sleep re insomnia so here’s update on Dr
Gonzales
I will call at 8:30 am for an appointment either Tue 23 Wed 24 or
Thu 25
for followup to heart pains I am experiencing down my back and
along my left arm. It’s not 911 but check for stent like my Dad (2 stents) and
Bro (1 stent) an out patient procedure and change to more effective heart med.
I will request be late afternoon from 3:30 to 4:30pm Office only open to noon
on Fridays and we already have 9:15 am appointment with Dr Onadeko.
1 Heart check re may have had mild heart attack as last straw at
Garland
Behavioral Health one night around meds and shower time. It was
chaotic and late with meds etc cause had call 911 to come take young woman to the
hospital for excessive bleeding as she was in GBH because of recent miscarriage
at 5-6 months into her pregnancy and it was a little boy. She came in deeply
depressed. Then all hell broke loose with Peggy an aggressive disruptive
patient in for early onset dementia and threatening neighbors. She’s retired
nurse, quite smart and knows she has dementia.
She “sun downs” and gets agitated later gets in evening. She
disrupted group sessions so much they’d have to ask her to leave group during
the day. Day shift techs and nurses managed her better than nights except one
team Adrianna nurse and Tech Toy.
I wrote them a great evaluation for keeping us on schedule at
night with meds and showers because of Peggy’s agitated disruptions around meds
and bedtime. She would try to come in my room cause it was next to hers. I’d
have to speak loudly and tell her to leave my room and go to hers. GBH rotated
day and night nurse & tech teams -never same or rarely same each day or
night. Peggy was one to observe I was in distress not breathing well. She asked
if I had pain down my back and along my left arm. I did. She tried to tell
nurse then I told the nurse who said had enough for one night with prior 911.
They are required to write report if patient asks for medical care
so I asked for them to check my blood pressure again. They did. It was like 116
over 55. 55 is too low.
I have my blood pressure readings from my heart monitor cuff
written down from week I looked at them from week 14-week 20. I had quite few
50s and indicative heart stress for women. People usually think typical hyper
tension or high blood pressure like my Dad and Bro. I looked for weeks 1-13 but
could not find them; however they should all be in memory of my heart monitor
cuff and Dr Gonzales can review weeks 1-20 in it. Essentially at 72 pounds
overweight and sedentary I was moving from per hypertension to hypertension
like 150 over 85 Primary care can take care of you until start going into 170s
over 180s so Dr Gonzales needs know about my Dad’s stents and Bro’s so she
fixes it or heart doctor puts in stent,
I also need to know do or do I not take Januvia for diabetes and
to schedule a colonoscopy. Medicare and BCBS will cover all.Then I have been
fully checked out as I move to Waterford. I have covered all medical health
bases.Sorry for all but when get to Waterford out physical therapy, out Group,
able get to routine Dr appointments by shuttle etc
