monitors my diabetes progress or regress. I've seen my doctor 8 times in 14 months and from a starting point of weighing 228.8 to today's weigh in at 174.4 I have lost weight every time I've seen her, I'm still her favorite patient because she sees progress in my blood sugar level and high blood pressure and most of all my weight lost.
I thought for sure that I would have stayed even or even gained a pound or two from my last visit because of all the dental work I had done and buying the new truck and just getting off of my normal routine thingy but I was wrong, I actually lost almost 4 more pounds for a total weight lost of 54.4 pounds
I do have some issues though, for some reason I will get a pretty bad nose bleed that comes outta no where, it doesn't happen everyday in fact the nose bleeds are maybe a month apart, the other morning I woke up with a nose bleed, a few times at work I would be just doing my job then my nose would bleed and keep bleeding, my doctor is not sure what is going on here.
Then my other problem is my finger tips and toe tips are very sensitive to cold weather to the point they hurt and go numb, keep in mind I lived in Wisconsin with no problem, home of the Green Bay Packers
My doctor says it could be from my diabetes but she is not sure so she had the lab drain a gallon of blood (at least it seem like it ) from me so she can send it out for testing plus is gonna do another prostate test plus send me to the hospital to get what she called a colonoscopy, not sure what that was so I asked, lets just say here folks I'm about to get to know a cannon camera more then I ever thought I would
Anybody ever happen to have one of those colonoscopy thingys and did it hurt :sad:
Anyway, life goes on, you take it one day at a time and keep moving forward, next stop, Philly with Bubba, Elson and the sweet Miss Betty
