Kathy I found out that it was a nurse there at her doctor's office that goofed up on her reading of the blood pressure or something. She ended up saying something to the head of the office, it ended up being the wife of the doctor too! Good person to tell, at least. And they are some of the older folks that they come in there too! But the scary thing was medication was given her, then of course it was too harsh, & she said she just stopped using it, because she could tell it was harsh, & consulted her doctor immediately! I was really concerned though, & she does have HBP, so you do want to have it monitered & glad my father-in-law said she was in bed, again, because she just went to bed & rested until she contacted her doctor, but still!! They were having her do some more tests with a mobile heart test where you wear a monitor overnight, then return it the next day, I guess! We'll hear the results, but the doctor had originally said her heart was slowing down, & may! be have to have a pacemaker for her heart, but it hasn't been decided on as yet! Thanks for your concern all. I'll keep you posted!!
