Be careful, I would suggest buying a $30 approx blood pressure machine at Walmart just to keep track the first few days. Anyway just tell your DR the truth and you should work it out.

I am starting to taper and only had 3 medium drinks yesterday instead of the 5 strong. Felt OK during the evening except didn't know what to do with the time. Sleeping was very restless though... woke up feeling good though. I hope my Dr gives me something for the anxiety and and I tough it out. If having to go to rehab or tough it out with nothing on my own ... I pick on my own. Which is why I am trying the taper approach leading to my appointment.
On the BP machine... what am I "keeping track of"? just getting baselines?
