Full Stat Day + Typical Breakfast:
A.M. Blood Glucose: Time: 1416 Reading: 143 |
A.M. Blood Pressure: Time: 1414 BP: 155/86 Pulse: 80 |
A.M. Arterial Temp: Time: 1418 Reading: 100.8 |
A.M. 60" Digital Oral Temp: Time: 2:34 Reading: 98.0 |

Medication Changes:
- She wasn't up long enough for her third breathing treatment today.
- Gave her a 325 mg tab of acetaminophen with dinner. I can't remember why, now. It wasn't because of her temperature, though, I don't think. I don't have a record of taking it. It was, though, a touchy day for both of us and she was pretty stiff. It was probably the stiffness that prompted me to give her the acetaminophen.
Miscellaneous Observations:
- No problems with blood glucose today, obviously. With breakfast I gave her a homemade pumpkin/dried cherry/pecan muffin instead of her usual toast with cinnamon.
- Her blood pressure, particularly her diastolic, was pretty high this morning, but I didn't give her extra lisinopril, chiefly because she was irritated with me when she first awoke and her arm remained tight as a drum through three separate blood pressure measurings. The one above is the best of the three.
- I took her temperature twice, once with the arterial thermometer and once with the 60" oral digital thermometer, because, despite the arterial measurement, her forehead felt cool. I think the arterial thermometer is acting up again. I'll probably be switching exclusively to the Digital oral 60" thermometer for awhile.
