Not much writing going on here…

Entries have been hard to come by lately, and for that I apologize. I’ve slacked on a lot lately but I’ve had a lot on my plate lately. Mom is doing better, but I’ve had a lot of appointments myself to take care of myself and that took up a lot of time last week and even when I had time to write, I was too tired or too distracted to do anything. So this diary and my books were grossly neglected.

But there is a lot of good news, and I’ll update everyone on that.

– I saw my nutritionist last week, and I’m down another eleven pounds. That’s very good news, considering.

– My blood sugar results from the test I did the week before were greatly improved. My glucose is now 5.1 which is perfect. So in seven months I went from being 7.2 which was basically diabetic to under which means the diet I’ve been doing lately is working and better for me.

– My cholesterol is a little elevated, but for good reason. On the orders of another doctor I was to increase my diary intake ten fold to protect my bones which are softer than normal. All that fat has elevated my Cholesterol just a smigen. I will still be eating the fatty milk products, but lower them to skim or 1% to fight the slighly elevated Cholesterol levels.

– I saw the specialist I am seeing for Osteio Persis issue, and I have several medications I could take, but the good ones are not covered by healthcare which means I would have to pay for them out of pocket. The reason why is because usually these meds are for people ages 70 or older. So unless I have a few breaks (which I don’t want) or wait forty years, I can’t get this stuff. I’m thinking writing a few MPs about this since exceptions should be made for my case, which is very rare.

So I’ve got a lot going on lately, but this week isn’t as bad so I will make time to catch up on a few things, post a few entries and try to get some book work done as well. Until then everyone have a good week and I’ll try my best be around. Take care!
