Hi! Just back from Weight Watchers; I'm only 4.8 lbs. over my goal, even though it's been 3 months since I went to a meeting. It could have been much worse!
In other good news (just had to share this!) my mother e-mailed and said that my Dad may not have Alzheimer's Disease after all. His GP diagnosed it last summer and put him on Aricept, but it hasn't done much good. Now he's had a full neurological workup and blood profile, and the neurologist thinks the symptoms are caused by iron and B-12 deficiency! He's going to get iron supplements and B-12 shots, and they expect improvement in only a few weeks. I'm very excited (even though Mom said not to be, until they see what happens); Dad's only 68!
Thanks for listening!
I hope that the original diagnosis turns out to be incorrect and your father is alright.
Will keep him in my thoughts.
-good times, G.J.P.(Jr.)
Wow -- really great news about your father! :))
My Dr. has me on Niacin -- says it enhances all the other drugs and generally helps incredibly!!
I haven't adjusted well back to the travel thing, so I am not quite ready to face a scale.
