(Resting in Barbados) JOE: Good morning Calliope. CALLIOPE: Good morning Joe. How are you today? JOE: It's a little hard to say. CALLIOPE: Why is that? JOE: Last week I had two doctors' appointments. I had several cups of coffee before the first one and had fairly high blood pressure. I did not drink coffee before the second appointment and my blood pressure was lower than it has ever been before. CALLIOPE: And your conclusion? JOE: The obvious one that my blood pressure and caffeine are connected. CALLIOPE: Why the sudden concern? JOE: I was able to discontinue my blood pressure medication earlier this year after I lost weight and would prefer not to start it again. CALLIOPE: I see. So where do you stand now? JOE: I gradually decreased my caffeine over the past week. Yesterday was the first full day with no caffeine. CALLIOPE: Any ill effects? JOE: Just headaches which left me today and restless sleep. I think I'll make it though. CALLIOPE: Best of luck with your experiment. JOE: Thanks. Now to see whether it affects my writing. Talk with you tomorrow.
