Need to put this down so I can remember how many trips my husband will have made to medical for his Blood pressure. I believe this is now trip 2 since in Afghanistan and trip 5 since being activated in April. Do they not see the pattern?
Hubby has had a headache and neck pain for last few days. He also travelled this week by helicopter for a couple days as well. He broke down and went to doctor to be checked out. They determined he possibly has arthritis developing in his neck causing the pain and headache, which then elevates his blood pressure. They gave him a cortisone shot and sent him on his way. He was ordered to rest & relax for a few days. So no work and lots of boredom on his agenda. He is supposed to go back for a blood pressure recheck tomorrow. But I have learned that those mean nothing. As long as they have a body and it is breathing they don't care about the welfare and health of the soldiers. I am not surprised by the arthritis determination... he is 6'5" after all and spends most days crouching through doorways.
On the bright side its Friday!
