No Pressure

I spent an hour being monitored this morning and having my blood drawn. The conclusion by the nurses and laboratory was that I am normal or at least my blood and blood pressure is. My blood pressure was perfect, and the test that they did to check my liver function, which is the primary organ affected by high blood pressure, was totally fine.

In this pregnancy I have gone through two rounds of diabetic testing, a daily regimen of 4 glucose checks a day, at least 6 non stress tests and several blood draws. With all of these tests the outcome has always been that I have actually been perfectly fine, which makes me wonder if medical tests are horribly inaccurate or if my body does not perform well under medical test-like scenarios. The funny thing is that I have always felt fine, and as my mother so kindly likes to point out, I study and analyze my bodily functions and symptoms with extreme attention to detail. I guess that means that I would be the first to know if something was wrong.

Here's to another weekend.
