    Went to Lake Tahoe last weekend. Was going to stay for a week. Left the next morning with 188/115. My Losartan+Amlodipine and low-dose Aspirin mix had no effect. Without my meds, I would have undoubtedly stroked at that elevation/altitude (7,000). I felt pressure and shortness of breath as soon as we hit 5,500. I was gasping the entire time and panting like a dog with my mouth open. As soon as we hit the bottom on the way back, I instantly went back to my 133/86 average. This has left me in a terrible depression. I was planning a N.Cali>Oregon>Washington>Utah trip. We had to scrap all our plans and now plan according to altitude. I had 11 lakes on my wish list and now 9 are a no-go. This is so F****D UP! However, 155/96 is nowhere near stroke level and isn't all that bad short-term. But it absolutely causes pounding headaches. You can maintain those numbers for a few years before they start to cause arterial damage. I have secondary hypertension. It's weight related and activates like clockwork. When I hit 261 pounds, boom....149/94 and it goes up 5 points with every 5 pounds. It won't drop until I hit 245. At which point, boom.....120's/80's. I have a gut and do a lot of sitting. It puts pressure on my stomach and kidneys and boom, numbers go up. Sitting+weight=all bad! I wish I would have known that altitude had such a major impact on hypertension.

    I worked at a Hilton Garden Inn and people parked boats, vans, work van all the time, we never checked tags even though we issued them. ..... Another fact- 90% of us underpaid employees didn't care who parked in our lot, at least one desk clerk would take "tips" to let non guest use our guest only electric car chargers. Point being, we just didn't care.

I'm sick of the bumps, rashes and itching. I'm ready to try fresh chopped garlic in my food and was told that garlic powder doesn't work as well.

    I was just at Whiteface Mountain a couple of days ago. We took the elevator up but then a storm rolled in and they shut the elevator down, so we HAD to take the "stairs" down (there is steps at the bottom, but the rest is basically rock climbing) 27 stories. My arm and leg muscles still hurt lol, but I'd do it again in a heartbeat for the view up there. Wish I filmed it though, it was wild when the thunderstorm rolled in around me on those rocks.

    One thing I saw a van life talk about with a hotel they went to; it was one with a security guard in a little car who literally watched them come in and not get out of the car to go check in to the hotel. They were there like 15-20 mins before the guard knocked on th door and said they couldn’t stay there. So that may be a thing. A security guard driving around a parking lot may make you feel safer, but you may also be one of the people they’re trying to shoo away. 😂

    I just used one of the small heater apps from a friend when getting bitten on holiday. It worked really well and really quickly, but the heat does hurt quite a bit (for about 5 seconds). I was told the heat actually denatures the protein from the sting venom thus neutralising it and preventing the hystamine reaction of swelling and itching. THe little ceraminc heater plate gets up to about 50 - 55C. It makes good sense I think.
