Dr. Dix told me my nurse practioner put me on Claridon allergy medicine instead of a low dose of high blood pressure medicine, I was up at night crying it was so strong so the nurse practioner gave me allergy medicine and my veins burst in my leg what a mess, the doctor told me I had a good EKG nothing detected so far, but I needed to get my blood pressure down. Which I am working on but the improvement with seeing a real doctor made all the difference in the world. I was very touched that the doctor wanted me to bring in my cuff and blood pressure monitor and start monitoring my blood pressure accurately daily.
