Four Months
Realized today that its been four months now. It's getting to a point where it feels like something that happened a while ago, but four months isn't that long. My BP reading tonite was 132/92, pulse 65. A little high but pulse is very low. Don't even take the BP that often anymore. Maybe once or twice a week. I guess I'm sliding back into my pre-stroke habits, though still cutting down on sweets. Exercise has been the same, the biggest difference except not pigging out on sweets is the amount of water I drink. My BM had been loose the last month but the last few days its been on the constipated side. I wonder if I don't drink enough water, or don't eat enough fruits and veggies. In general, the bulk of my diet lately has been carbs. They are just what I crave. I know I should eat more fruit/veggies, though I still have a banana and a salad almost everyday. It doesn't feel like my memory is getting worse, but that could be a hard one to know. Sometimes words jumble up when I talk but happens quickly enough that the rest of the sentence is soon out. Don't remember the last brain fart. Or the last space out. Seem to be coming out of my depression, though mainly feeling just blah. Just one of those things, time heals and life continues.
