And the doctor says ...

[lionkingcmsl]

he can hear build up in my upper respiratory tract. :={

He was not happy that the E-R did no tests. He is saying that I might now have a case of walking pneumonia. :={

He gave me a script for anti-biotics and cough medicine. He was somewhat concerned about my BP: 120/100 (nurse) & 130/100 (doctor). He gave me a low dose BP medicine to try to correct it before it gets too far out of paw. I was also advised to take the last two days of this week off and see him in two weeks.

Addendum: I forgot to put in the stats from the visit:
Height = 5' - 11 1/4" [1.80975 meters]. I seem to have lost 3/4" [1.9cm] somewhere.
Weight = 198 lbs [89.81kg or 14.14 stone]. I seem to have lost a bit of weight as well, from my heaviest of 210 lbs [95.25 kg or 15 stone].

The good news is that you caught it in time. People get a little shorter with age. Sometimes even the time of day makes a difference with later in the day being a shorter measurement because of spinal compression. Anyway... the operative phrase here is "Get Well". *hugs*
