Morning ladies.
Just got back from the doctors. I guess Friday night I had a few issues. My sugar was 123 and my thyroid was very active which helped boost the blood pressure and pulse rate.

Stress test will be 2 days next week. I have to make the appt. Gettin older isn’t easy, 53 next week.

Blood sugar is a bit high, but not tremendous. I deal with that sugar thing and mine gets higher. Worries me checking it all the time. I am not too familiar with thyroid problems but I have heard it affects a lot of things like blood pressure.

Wonder why stress test takes two days? Everything will be just fine...I just know! You are YOUNG, Mr. Mayor...LOL!
Good luck! One thing about my doctor is that his assistant makes all my extra appointments for me and that really helps.

Take good care,hang in there, Rus..You are doing the followup. Take one day at a time.
Getting older! Oh my ..you are younger than my son, the same age as my daughter...They are still young to me...and I suppose always will be.
;o)

After my flurry of castle cleaning..I am feeling like old age isn’t for sissies..I have my eye on other projects ..but my back says “no way is it going to happen today”. I am really grateful for a good day yesterday, however...and chastised about pushing a bit too far.

You have so many who care for you, Rus..Prayers and HUGS.

Hey, Youngin.

Before knee surgery, I took a 2 day stress test. Nothing to it. No treadmill ..... Yeah. Just drugs and tests. :)

Have they checked your thyroid?

Good Luck next week.

Take it easy, Rus, and get the “gettin’ old” idea out of your head. *Wink*
