Nice report from Dr. Lochala :happy:

Cholesterol-down from 203 in 2012 to 175.
HDL-stayed the same at 52.
LDL-down from 119 to 102.
Triglycerides-down from 160 to 106.
Blood sugar-up from 87 to 116 (he said this is most likely caused by the switch to night shift life)
My BP was 120/70...down from 140/90 in Sept. 2012 & pulse was 72.
Weight-down 57#s from Sept '12 to Oct '13.

He was very pleased with my report. Will remain on one BP med, for now. I'm so happy! :bigsmile: We can win this battle, my Friends...never give in! ♥bitxbit

    Lol...I find that some of my back and knee pain has eased up, i don't get winded as fast and headaches a far fewer! Most of all, though, I feel better about myself.:smile:

    Thanks Ladies
