Suddenly, my heart is racing. My stomach is turning, and I do not know why. The current Indiana Jones' film, had several scenes that made my stomach roll. Certain camera angles on high cliffs, drew me into the scene. I am afraid of heights, therefore, I had a temporary sensation of falling. The red ants, just made my stomach turn.
This morning I had an appointment with my Family Practice Doctor, who I have known for almost 30 years. The only anxious moment was when the nurse took my blood pressure. 144/88, boarder line. I was afraid of taking more medication. The doctor does want to see a pattern of blood pressure readings overtime. Of course, he recommended that I exercise more. Even when digging up soil to place a garden.
It is true, that I have not done as much exercise in May, as I did in prior months. It is also true that the mail I received today was not very encouraging. But, I am not angry, just anxious. I have a medication called, Lorazepam to calm me down. Only .05 will calm me without making me sleep. If I take two, I will definitely go to sleep.
My stomach is still turning. It can’t be what I ate? Could it? How long will this anxiety last? I will just go to sleep, because I am stuck in an unknown place. Perhaps my dreams will give me an answer? Perhaps I found the key that opens the door to the other side of my mind?
