Again the TO DO list. Now I'm sure everyone has one and it grows everyday. Mine stresses me out, although it may not have much on it feels like it adds 1,000 pounds on my shoulders. I've been really stressed out lately and when I saw my one doctor last week he said it didn't seem like the Xanax was helping. He gave me Valumin. I don't feel much different.
J is gone for the week with work so it's just M and I. I started walking in the mornings. I have to push myself because when I have pain I don't want to, but I tell myself it will be over before I know it. I have been gaining weight about 1/2 a pound a day since I started to walk and cut out pop. It's very frustrating and I can't imagine what would cause such a rapid gain.

It's Hard To Predict
Since the doctor appointments have slowed down then I have less to stress about. Until last week....
I had a 6month check up with my Endocrinologist last week. Before I went in I had to do blood tests. I thought this was going to go smooth. We talked about how I have been feeling and I thing it's the same. We went over the results and my cholesterol were high . My Tryglicerdies are at 405 and total total cholesterol is over 240. They weren't able to measure my LDL's because my other levels were too high. I was told i needed to go and see my PCP Dr. R. and discuss the path I need to take. Yesterday I had an appointment with him and we started out with the sinus infection I have, AGAIN!! Then we talked about the pain and how the meds that the pain specialist give me aren't even touching it. I told him how I lay in bed in pain wanting to go to the ER. He said that the Pain doctor was giving me such a low dose that I can talk more thank 1 or 2 of the pain pills for the horrid pain. That was a relief. Then we talked about the other issue. He is going to have me start taking Krill Oil and then I will check my blood again in 2 months. If there is not change then we have to be more aggressive. I started to walk in the mornings and did so 3 times this week, we have cut out all pop this last week. In a couple of weeks I will start to work with my dietitian again. I'm holding all of this helps. I'm up on the amount of pills that I am taking again but there is no way of getting around it. This is what my morning pills look like.
