Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Diabetes / October 2005I am dancing
This morning I had an appointment with the endo. He took my blood pressure and it was 80/50. He went to his kitchen and got me a sour pickle to fix the low blood pressure. Apparently, diovan is also a bp med and I didnt have a problem to begin with, He wants me to only take 40 mgs a week instead of 160. So here goes glucose high 121 cholesterol 131 triglycerides 137 hdl 55 ldl 51 homocystein 8.1 chol/hdl ratio 2.5 a1c 5.4 so I am a happy camper Loretta -- In tribute to the United States of America and the State of Israel, two bastions of strength in a world filled with strife and terrorism. >This morning I had an appointment with the endo. > [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > >a1c 5.4 WOW! This is fantastic. I should be getting my results in tomorrow's mail. When I do I will post them. The doctor's nurse talked to me already, but I want to be sure I get them right. I will guarantee you that I too will be doing the happy dance. Keep up the fine work Loretta.

Robert you are exactly right, first he was going to give me salt water and then offered up the pickle as a more delicious thing to eat.

I'm pretty sure salt water would be the second fastest way to make me throw up.
