My annual checkup was last week. With bloodwork, of course. (Only ne stick! Bruised like hell after, but I’ll take it if it means I leave with only one bandage.)
Thyroid hangin’ in there — the little gland that could.
Still overweight. Still not diabetic. Because to most people’s disbelief, I don’t eat a lot of sweets. Desserts aren’t my comfort food. There are plenty of other unhealthy foods that will make you overweight but won’t necessarily give you the sugar. (If you’re not familiar with it, this is an Appalachian, maybe fully Southern term for diabetes.)
A few things I had to look up what the test indicated (always check someplace like the Mayo Clinic or Cleveland Hospital sites). I know what the tests test now and just have to trust my doctor will tell me if my results are bad.
And I’m still pale. Which is my way of saying my vitamin D level is still low. It’s much higher than last year. I’m now just below the normal line on the graph in my results. So I figure I’m no longer full-blown creature of the night undead vampire. I’m edging toward more crepuscular (god, I love that word) supernatural creature. Maybe a banshee.
Anyway, what’s new with you?
