Topic: Kind of a 1 year check up
Well I went to my primary care doc and she said my labs r so amazing except my prolactin levels are extremly High will explain that in a sec what that means.
Labs as follows
A1C were 5.4 normal people range 4.3 to 5.8 yeah!!!!! means my diabetes is gone.
Triglycerides 55 (42-122) that is low carb and no fat diet kicking in baby LOL
Cholestrol 199 I use to be 350 ..and on vytorin
LDL 134 should be less that 130 no biggie since I do exercise alot
my ratio is 3.7 is a little low but she said great job ..
My pre Albumin is low which means I am really lacking protien in my diet was 14 and normal range is 18 to 45 so I will be seeing the dietician soon to go over a few diet changes but over all my health is great as far as diet issues except more protien needed and I do have some bad news as many of you know I had a bran tumor my prolactin levels are high and I had A MRI done and my pititary tumor is back. third time now and will go see the brain doc June 5 but mean while they started me back on paralodel to help shrink the tumor and it is less than 1mm which means they do not have to go in yet to remove the tumor like last time. My vison is ok and not pressing on the optic nerve but have lost some perphial vision but I think we have caught it in time but will see the doc and go from there. I was suppose to see my surgeon for a fill and he took and month off and they negleted to tell me all the while I was sitting in waiting room for 45 mins before they informed me he was on vacation GRRRRRRRRRRRR so I will see him june 10 for a fill I hope I did weigh in and I have not lost any weight since feb.. but the nurse tried to make me feel better when she says at least u did not gain like most people do from major surgery
I do feel ok. considering and u know when they told me my tumor was back I did not freck out I have this calm feeling I will be ok BECASUE i FEEL MY BODY IS IN OPTINAL HEALTH TO FIGHT THIS wish I had energy but that will come in time
I hope when I start eating more protien the weight will come off and the energy will return
love u all my fellow A team buddies

I really needed the B-12 or I was dragging. After the things that Shar went thru, I felt like maybe I needed B-complex also.
Anyway, Natures Bounty is now making a sublingual liquid that has B-complex with B-12. It makes it nice because I only have to take it once. It is also very inexpensive (around $5 for a 2 month supply).
My PCP is getting more involved. I had no need to see him until recently so we are working on getting me back up to speed.
