Update About My Failing Health

[conrax]

Okay, here’s the situation:

I recently visited the doctor for the first time in four years. I was having a problem with blocked up ears and some mystery hives. Turns out the hives were from stress or new laundry detergent, and my ears need to be flushed of wax when I go back to the doctor’s on Monday afternoon.

The doctor basically said fuck the ears

I was diagnosed with High blood pressure 6 years ago and I do not think you have seen much difference in the way I do things. I made some changes to the diet and take walks for the exercize. I also have a blood sugar problem that is a pre-diabetic condition so I have to keep my eye on that as well. The medications and some minor moderation will solve the problem Do you see anything in the stuff that I drink or eat that indicate any drastic changes in my life style. The smoking is tough. I quit over 30 years ago and I still get the urge. The most important 3 things are moderation, medication and stress management. We should go toss a couple of beers and have a chat.

Thanks Mike. I'd love to throw back a few beers, but until I get these levels down, I gotta obstain. Doctor's orders. We could still chat though.

By the way. My pay got cut 25% today. It's been a fun week:)
