My Health Starts with Me

I saw the nurse practitioner who prescribes my psych meds yesterday. No changes on that front, but she did order a blood draw. I walked to the hospital to get the work done today because Stephanie wasn’t up to driving and my health starts with me. It went smoothly but the results came back with a lot of irregularities. My cholesterol is through the roof. My A1C is still high but at 6.2 I remain prediabetic. It’s been around there for 15 years. My sodium is perfect at least. And considering I walked 2.5 miles at a brisk pace without any shortness of breath or chest pain I’d say my heart and lungs are fine. I made an appointment to get a complete eye exam while I was signed into the hospital network. All in all I’m still in control.
