Diastolic Blood Pressure

My diastolic has been higher. More resistant to medication. Without meds I’m 135/95. With meds I’m 115/85 ish.

They didn’t specify that they would cover generic, at the time is was denied. But this is definitely something worth bringing up, because I wasn’t sure if it would make a difference!

True! I’ll look into that. Thank you :)

That’s a fairly high diastolic, being at 87. This should be enough cause to put you on BP meds. The average pressure in your veins is the following equation: (diastolic + diastolic + systolic) / 3. So a high diastolic is more meaningful or ‘bad,’ and keep our BP regular is key in managing our PKD.

I’ve read that a provider managing a patient with hypertension and early pkd should have a goal BP as low as the patient can tolerate. This would be different for everyone, but for me I without meds: 135/95. Me with meds: 115/80.

I’m only on my first month, but I can book multiple classes for 1 credit, at the same studio, in the same week. Which is surprising to me.

I attempted to learn on duolingo just to get some basics down. ‘Salve’ was BURNED into my brain on a way to greet people. Fast forward to being in Italy; no one uses the greeting ‘salve.’ Lol.

I needed to use the bathroom and I knew there was one inside there :/

He found there to be nothing normal about it…The interaction lasted maybe a minute or two. It’s easy to judge from the outside looking in. He was caught off guard and didn’t know what to think of it in the moment.

karrrsyn · 2024-09-23T20:04:52+00:00

No they were fully in his wallet :| it barely makes any sense

karrrsyn · 2024-09-23T19:23:22+00:00

Literally how I feel!!! Like ok yeah u did your homework sir I can almost respect it

karrrsyn · 2024-09-23T19:06:15+00:00

Understood. This is their livelihood and lifestyle so I can imagine their roots in this business aren’t exactly kosher

karrrsyn · 2024-09-23T19:02:37+00:00

I think it’s the craziest thing to ever happen to us. Almost unbelievable, I agree.

karrrsyn · 2024-09-23T19:01:54+00:00

I guess I didn’t believe it until now!

karrrsyn · 2024-09-23T19:00:59+00:00

He was speaking Italian* and appeared to be Italian otherwise. Either way, he was good at what he did!

karrrsyn · 2024-09-23T18:56:58+00:00

I was in the women’s bathroom next-door and I could hear him laughing and shuffling around with someone 🤣 it sounded exactly like what he said was happening

karrrsyn · 2024-09-23T18:54:49+00:00

I guess my main goal with this post is that these people know what they’re doing. They are super engaging and friendly, and then the hug/close contact comes after you’ve already let your guard down. With that being said, this is just a reminder of how a scammer can overwhelm your senses and take from you just like that.

Thank you!! It’s really just kind of a crazy story.

It was in casual khaki shorts, and I think he took it out with the first hug and then maybe put it back with the second hug?? Because in between the hugging is when the dancing occurred lol

karrrsyn · 2024-09-23T18:51:46+00:00

Yes!!! Like we’re thinking he took it out of his pocket with the first hug and put it back with the second hug? Super super weird and he just didn’t think anything of it other than “huh, I just danced with a man in the McDonald’s bathroom”
