Problem is, I have a health problem since birth, regarding endocrine system and metabolism - it is accelerated and in in a state of constant maximum activation: "fight or flight", without drugs it does not rest, so to speak. I know since long that I will not become too old anyway, but why my BP exploded in such short period of time beyond the usual frame, doctor so far has no idea of. This morning I have been dated for plenty of diagnostics with specialists next week. For the time being, just a big callibre medication to fight the current spike in BP, and putting the rest of me into wax. I must say occasionally I have felt better in the past. I even had to put my parttime job in the hospital on ice.

First sunny day since two rainy weeks today: but being prohibited to do anything stressing, demanding, destracting, or to tour by bike, or to execise, or expose myself to warm temperatures outside. The inquisition is back.
