Had visit with doc on 10/18/11 to check on blood sugar level. I did a fasting lab test. My doc was not happy with me because I gained a few pounds and my blood sugar level has risen. I was told that one more fasting lab result like this last one and I would be officially diagnosed as DIABETIC.
Went back to doc on 12/8 for a pre-op exam (cataract surgery) and I weighed in at 165. I get to try not taking my cholesterol meds for a month and see how that goes. If all goes well, I will have gotten off two meds - blood pressure and cholesterol. Still working on lowering my blood sugar level.
I was to go back for check up in January but I pushed my appointment to February. I have been unable to do any exercising (including golf) since eye surgery on 12/15. I wanted a little more time to eat healthier and get in some walking.
Here's to 2012 and a healthier me!!!
