[Cancer]
[cancer] A tiny bit more post-op followup
Back from the doctor, dipping into the blogosphere for a moment before I return to work. Basically, we did some post-op baselining on glucose and lipids (which represent my most significant non-cancer health risks based on family history.) Glucose level was decently below the pre-diabetic threshold. Cholesterol was the best result I’ve had in eight years with this clinic. Also, my morning dry weight was back below 250 this morning.
I think I’m kicking everything’s ass. Now to work on stabilizing weight and not getting silly with diet, once the lower GI problem clears. I may never play the violin again, but it looks like I’m going to live a long time yet.
