BuffyBear's Journal, 13 February 2013

I just had my blood work done so am a little late chugging the morning coffee.

As for the test - there are two things they are always concerned about: blood sugar and cholesterol. At 206 pounds I was diagnosed as being pre-diabetic. Since then my low glycemic/low carb diet has been very successful at keeping my blood sugar down. But my cholesterol is another matter.

I went off my cholesterol meds last October - without telling my doctor. I have a follow up appointment next week to discuss the results so this topic to be continued...

Now, let me go find another cup of coffee!
