Occasional Hand Swelling and Joint Pain, and misc updates

This has been going on for a while.  So I'm going to start logging what I ate etc when this happens and see if there is a common link.  Still not sure if it's osteoarthritis or rheumatoid, or lately I've been thinking I prolly have both.  Hip has been hurting but it's also been 8 weeks since my last chiro appt, going tomorrow so hoping it'll get better.  

Cold is a lot better, still coughing occasionally but not too bad.  Pain in chest area comes and goes, hoping Chip will put it back in again and it'll stay this time.  Sometimes the pain in the chest gets pretty bad where I start wondering if there's something wrong with my heart.  It's a scare I get sometimes.  

Broke two things this past week, hit a glass jar against sink faucet and broke, and dropped a plate in sink.  Just remember dropping things months before my stroke.  Gotta be careful.   

Today around dinnertime my right hand swells again.  Middle finger had pain and hard to bend.  Not red nor hot this time, first two joints have pain. Took pic.  Next time I have to go to doctor for BP meds I'll ask if I can get tested or if I should see rheumatologist. 

Today...

Mid-AM:  Leftover chopsteak and rice.  

Lunch: Tuna sandwich with side salad (Ranch dressing), coffee (with vanilla creamer)

Mid-Afternoon: Iced tea with peach syrup.  Eat up remaining chopsteak.  Two pieces of Dove dark chocolate

Dinner:  Salad (QP dressing), spinach quiche (w/tomato and swiss cheese) & rice, and red wine. 

Around 9:30pm:  Tangerine

Activity:  Went for walk with Paula in town (3.5 miles) and then small house loop with Roscoe.  Cleaned on top of fridge and dusted.  Cleaned new toaster oven for lib in AM.   Cleaned lib in AM.

BP around 9 PM 145/100 (90).  Been trying to take BP meds almost daily.  Wondered if BP reading (if high) relates to hand swelling.

Right heel hurting after waking in AM, sitting for a while, and a little after I start my walk.  Possible mis-aligned hip pain contributing plantar fasciitis coming back?
