Very similar to the way i felt when i smoke a cigarette for the first time after 15 years. What do they have in common? Losartan lowers the blood pressure by relaxing arteries. I knew for a longtime that nicotine is a vasodilator.
Well, it is for skeletal muscles blood vessels it while constricts the peripheral. However, it is not nicotine responsible for the lowering of the blood pressure. Tobacco is also reach in vitamin K. However, vitamin K has long term effects on your blood pressure. So it must by something else.
Like after smoking a cigarette, the initial light headedness was replaced soon after by a well being sensation (high) that at the beginning lasted for hours but faded away after a couple of weeks to almost none, this.
Today i had something on my mind. Wanted to go and ask the garbage truck driver again to let me grab the sacs caught this time under west bin. But by the time he arrived, i was feeling so weird and stiff, i didn't know if i can do it. However i tried, grabbed several sacs, and other items, including green bags that were under.
I could not remove them all as he was on a schedule, i had only about 2-3 minutes, some stuff remained in there, among them a detergent bottle that got under and keeps it off the ground, with chances for more stuff to get in there. Maybe i could stick a pry bar and remove that one later.
Feeling stiff and about to faint most of the time. Good thing i did not get nauseated at all, after i quit smoking, drinking and took omega 3 which is supposed to open the gallbladder which it did right away, today was the first day with no significant nausea, even when handling that garbage with blue nitrile gloves.
Earlier today i cleaned the bathroom fan grill which was full of dust. While doing so they hissed the tub faucet real loud, vibrating the thing and releasing more dust. Could that count for some allergy that converged onto lowering blood pressure (though again it was not lower when measured).
But the well being probably given by lowering BP was ruined by big stomps upstairs, all morning, with blinds on and no car in the parking lot.
Anyways after taking a shower (which again felt weird) i decided to go with the walk. Since a good portion of my walk passes by the ER of the hospital across the street, i said to myself, if i get worse i will go there.
Again the shows at the intersections, this time some of the cars have been replaced by women on foot.
So i passed the ER but when about to leave Borland, i started to get sick again (about to faint like lightheadedness) (could also have been exhaust or something from a car passing, which i suspected in the past). So i turned around, walking back towards the ER. I noticed that when i was heating because of the thick jacket and the sun, i was getting worse. Probably heat and relaxation brought more low BP.
At a certain time i thought i saw in a huge SUV, white or silver, the President of Romania, Klaus Iohannis driving alone. He gave me a nervous look when i looked at him.
A few more minutes walking on the left side heading south towards hospital i met with a signaled (solar powered yellow lights flashing) crosswalk. I was standing there waiting for most cars to pass before i pushed that button, but one guy coming from the left stopped, with many cars behind. Then i looked on the right, could not see many cars approaching, pushed the button, the voice said "yellow lights are flashing" and started to cross.
About one meter to the center line, i saw a black BRONCO, speeding, coming from the right, passing in front of me. I was not aware he was about to pass. If i was about half second faster, he would have hit me at about 50 mph. The driver, black bearded, in his early 40s, looked familiar from my searches.
Conclusions.
These small yellow light flashing things do not work ell when there is much sunlight, especially because drivers are not used to them.
Best tricks work when i change my mind and turn around. Today i cut my walk short, turning on Borland. Who can now accuse THEM of planning this?
11:13 After Angela came and we ate, i fell asleep at the computer. Then i moved to bed. I slept till 8, waking up like after a marathon. The marathon on Borland. Did they gas me from a car or was the accumulation in my body of Losartan, with one more dose tipping over. However it was bad and i don't wanna go through what i went this morning again.
But today i remembered something about liver enzymes. After "the work accident" (read being gassed with Trichloroethane) at Electronic Specially, with again neighbors from upstairs (At Fox Pointe complex in Vancouver, the one close to Portland) keeping me awake for a week when i also didn't eat or drink water because of sleep deprivation psychosis, i ended up still alive at Washington Memorial Hospital, in the same city.
They gave me one pill (probably Ativan) with a little water and i slept for more than 12 hours. Then doctor Proanus came and after talking with me for one minute said i had schizophrenia.
Then they drew blood and here are the results. No elevated liver enzymes.
The story is much longer, but i will stick to one idea. Liver enzymes.
After i got out of the hospital i figured the thing with trichloroethane. And i went right away to a clinic in Vancouver and they sent me to a lab for tests. They did not find any trichloroethane, i believe the time passed since the accident was too long, however they gave me some liver enzymes test results (last page). SGPT was 6 times higher than the upper limit! Wasn't drinking or smoking at the time.
I can't remember why, 20 days later i went to the same clinic, and a different doctor sent me again to the same lab and my enzymes were now... ok!

In April i went to see an occupational doctor in Portland, dr.Eusterman. He took me to a building on 3rd and 4th in downtown Portland and told me to wait in the lobby. There was a directory with business there and i think one of them was the FBI. (Went there again in the next year to complain about a lawyer, they just gave me a phone number to call). But he didn't tell me.
I believe now it's all out of the statuses of limitations.
When i looked for dr.Eusterman, found his linkedin profile. But surprise, i had a job offer, as of today, the first ever, in i don't known, 15 years since i got the account, something related to programming and Italian.
Modest pay, 23 dollars an hour. Now that i think, i haven't spoken Italian in 30 years after living in Italy for 3 months (was watching Italian TV channels for years before that) though i read (with no problems) papers from time to time.
However i saw a movie recently, and they were i think speaking the Roman dialect, very fast, and could barely understand about 50% of the words and phrases. I will probably fail the interview, and i think this is what they are after, actually. But i will apply.
