Visit to the Doctor's
I've been going out with my mom these past two days for our Annual Physical Exam.
Yesterday, we finished with the x-ray, dental, ECG (for mom) and check-up. I didn't like the physician assigned to me this year since I didn't get too many inputs from her. Last year, the doctor gave me advise on what illnesses I should look out for (especially with my size) and what to do to be more healthy and gave extra lab tests for me to take since I am on the heavy side and also had a history of diabetes on both sides of the family. This year, I didn't get any good inputs at all, she just checked me and told me nothing. It was my mom who even asked if we can get extra tests done.
We had the extra lab tests done today, after the required fasting period. I normally don't look when my blood's getting drawn, but this time I sneaked a peek just before the syringe was taken out. It hurt more than what I remember - weird. But it wasn't so bad.
Shopped for some clothes while we were at the mall, and also took a chance to pick up some groceries for some of the stuff I'm planning to cook.
Finally, I capped today with my new dessert creation - Peach and Chocolate Chip Cooke Crumble.
I've also updated facebook with the latest pics :)
