A problem with my checkup
I had the checkup and drug screen for the new job yesterday. The drug screen was all clear, but my blood pressure is up. I've scheduled an appointment with my doctor for tomorrow to get it back under control. It's strange to have to be on meds again after having been off them for almost four years. Last year, at my October checkup, my blood pressure was normal. I guess the worry about work and money and finding a job set it off again.
They also took blood during the checkup, but the results for that won't be in for a couple of days. I wonder if anything will show up there that wasn't there last year.
I'm not sure what effect his will have on the new job. I probably won't know until all the test results are back.

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you on that blood pressure problem.
You have to get an employment physical for what I assume is a desk job?!
At least you found out about it before you had a stroke or something. You are suppose to check on that at least once a year if on meds or twice a year if not on meds. Okay enough griping.
Yep, I had to go thru a physical for a desk job. It's the only time I've had to do it.
I would have found out in October about my blood pressure 'cause that's when I would have gone in for my checkup. My blood pressure was normal last year.
