❤ Happy Valentine's Day!! ❤
I hope everyone has a wonderful day! I am enjoying the day with my hubby, as he has the day off. We are happily reminiscing about past valentine holidays. There are so many of them!
Alright, I was pretty depressed yesterday about my follow up visit. I went to the doctors office feeling great and happy I had lost so much weight. I had already received my lab results and was pretty much prepared for the usual admonishments and possible treatments. The day did not go the way I had envisioned.
After I got home last night I thought about the visit and realized overall, I was pretty lucky. My health could be worse. Today, I am sitting here toasting my health and obviously I will continue with dieting/exercise.
But hey! I still feel like ranting, so I will begin with the few things that really deflated me yesterday.
First off, with the weight loss, I figured I had brought my blood glucose level down...HA! It's still high. Doubt it will ever be a normal level again. This means I will start enjoying an occasional glass of wine once more! 😐
At my last visit, my blood pressure was a little high. Well, this time...you guessed it...it was higher. I have never, ever had a high blood pressure reading in my life...so this is really upsetting to me!! However, she's not unduly concerned and will continue to monitor it. Well...alrighty then! 😒
The big surprise of the visit was...ta..da!! Another UTI! This is really weird as I have no symptoms! None whatsoever! Da Nada!! Nothing!!! She decided I needed to be referred to a new specialist (the other one was not particularly effective) and since I had no symptoms, she was not prescribing any antibiotics. It was suggested I call as soon as possible in order to get an appointment. *Sighs* Sooooo...I called for an appointment immediately after leaving the doctor's office, explaining I had a referral due to a bacterial infection, with no symptoms and was not on antibiotics. Can you guess what happened? Yup...they will get back to me as soon as they receive my chart. 😐
This saga will continue...stay tuned for updates! 😎
