Good Doctor Visit!!
I went to see my PCM this morning and it was an Awesome visit. He has be go in and do labs earlier in the week. He wanted to check on my A1c along with other routine labs.
Last time I had my A1c checked it was a 9 today it is a 5.5 ....... He said I am not diabetic I am "normal"... Ok he actually said and I quote "aside from you being crazy you are normal" Ya, we have that kind of relationship where we can give eachother crap, it's great and beats a stuffy doctor any day!
It is such a huge relief for that number to be in the normal range, one of the main reasons I had the RNY was to help get rid of the diabetes.
He wants me to stay on the BP meds(I am on a minimal dosage) for a while longer. I go back in 3 months to check it all again. He is happy with the amount of weight I have lost and told me that losing slower is healthier and to keep up what I am doing, because it is working for me. He also said that if you loose real fast that is where the gallbladder issues come in, which I have read that before and am glad (knock on wood) I have no issues with my gallbladder so far.
