SD62 is on disability and is also a drama queen.  She has legitimate medical issues but because she exaggerates and lies so often, it's hard to determine the truth.

She called DH86 last night, her blood pressure was over 200 at the drugstore.  Supposedly, the pharmacist said she should go to the ER and offered to call an ambulance.  She was back home when she called  He urged her to call her doctor today.  She did and was told to go to the ER.   At the ER, they determined that her blood and iron were low again and her heart was beating 4x more that it should.  She goes tomorrow for another blood infusion, is getting more iron and should see a neurologist  (memory issues), cardiologist and oncologist (may be why her heart isn't getting the oxygen it requires).

As aged parent and stepparent, it's hard to determine what to do.  She seemed to be hinting for DH86 to take her to the hospital today (she ended up calling an ambulance,).  He doesn't do well driving anywhere he's not familiar with and wouldn't go without me.  Last year, when she had us picking her up from a distant hospital, he was driving her car and I drove her in mine.  I got very frank with her and told her he shouldn't be driving to distant places.  And, I said I was doing 3 things I shouldn't with weak eyes: driving on a highway, driving in the rain and driving in the dark.

She has 3 kids but is estranged from 2 of them.  DH86 urged her to call the other daughter but excuse, excuse, excuse. I think they are having some kind of drama right now.  But she ended up having her daughter bring her back home today.

Anyway, the drama never ends.  I think the medical issues are real but we will see.  On and on.
