I finally had a chance to speak with my GP about my physical & blood test. She had gone on vacation after our visit but had left a quick v/m telling me that my blood test came back.
I always have to laugh when they give me the results. It's like they're disappointed that I don't have anything majorly wrong with me. {knock wood} Good peasant stock as grandma would say.
She said that my good cholesterol is a bit low and my bad cholesterol is a bit high, but neither so bad that she wants to put me on drugs. We chatted about my new diet & work out plan & I told her that I've lost 4 pounds since I saw her on Jan 21st. :-D
Oh, and there's no sign of diabetes! Not that I was too worried about that, I just had a question about it since I tend to 'crash' in the afternoons. She's leaving some reading material at the counter for me to pick up, tips on how to bring up the good cholesteral and lower the bad some more. She also wants me to do a fasting blood test at the end of this month.
Pretty much it was, 'keep up the good work,' and we'll talk after my next blood test.
