Lets add on another one

I went to the doctor's office today. My thyroid hormones are all within normal limits. I did have alot of hematuria though. My fasting blood sugar was 112. This is not good. They think that I am insulin resistant. That is the stage before you become diabetic. So its now or never to fight this thing. I am going all out in a war against it. I don't want to become diabetic. I take too many medications as is. They just added Tricor for elevated triglycerides. Its going to be so hard in this house though. There is so much junk food. I keep telling Debbie not to buy it. Well, I will just have to have more willpower.

I ended up having a renal ultrasound to find out why I have hematuria. The rad read it but it wasn't typed yet by the time I left to go home. However, I did see the tech notes on it and there is an abnormal area in my right kidney and my left kidney is larger then my right. I am not exactly sure if there was anything else. I will have to wait until tomorrow to find out. I also had another ultrasound of my thyroid. Of course, there are still nodules in it. I didn't really look at the tech sheet on that one. I already know that it won't change much from the last one.

Well, it looks like yet another diagnosis has been added to my file. Just great!

If so, then I will put them into this blog. In the meantime, I am going to try to become active in blogging again. I can't promise anything. I had gotten so discouraged by the spam, that I had completely given up.

Includes entries like: Two heads are better than one: Like the less-familiar "Four eyes see better than two," this proverb extols the benefits of having someone else help you make up your mind-and it's a view that goes back to at least the fourteenth century. But while it is always useful to have a second opinion (A sounding board? Someone else to blame?) it might also be worth bearing in
