Paul's stress test is scheduled for tomorrow at 10:30. They said it takes 3 hours. He has to fast before, wear loose clothing and sneakers (he lives in sneakers!). Then at 5:30 we have the diabetes seminar.
Dr called yesterday to say his carotid artery test was fine. She also confirmed that there was nothing serious with the EKG. Stress test is because of the diabetes. I really like this dr. She is great with followup, phone calls, explaining things, etc.
As far as diet, we're been SO good. Fish, veggies, etc., no junk food - and we both feel the difference already. Pauls "Pillsbury dough boy" tummy has shrunk and I can feel the difference in clothing already. Snack at night is an apple! Maybe this is the best thing that could have happened to us.
Will let you know how the stress test goes.
