Just got back from the doctors. My blood work came back. Yay, I have perfect glucose (sp) levels and my cholestoral is perfect as well. My thyroid gland seems to be sluggish which in turn is making my metabolism sluggish. However he said that it's not significant enough to warrant medication and that I will just have to exercise 45 minutes to an hour a day rather than 20 minutes a day, AND I will have to eat quite small portions.



Basically I get to eat like a bird and exercise like a mule. Woohoo! I'm just glad I won't have to take medication. I'm taking enough medication as it is.



MA, I sent you a PM. I look forward to talking to you. Miss you.

Congratulations on not having to take any medication, bummer on the more exercise, but the good news is that it's not very serious!!!
Good luck to you with the whole situation!
