Results are not too bad...but confusing...

I went to the medico’s office this afternoon to see where we stand on my possible problem with being diabetic …Well; they came up with me still being a pre-diabetic and that I should stick to a healthy diabetic diet.
Hmmm I was not too upset with that, it sounded as if I can deal with that logically and discriminately, and so OK I will try that.

Meanwhile I had written to my old friend, sending her last night’s Blog where I explained my concerns about diabetes and since she was diagnosed with diabetes years ago I thought she could give me some intelligent insight. Did I mention that she is mucho intelligent since she is a retired college professor?
When we returned home this afternoon I had a return email from her, and again I was thrown, since she was told by a doctor that there is no such thing as pre diabetes, and if my numbers were what I said they are that I already did have diabetes, not pre….whew, scary!
I suppose it is true and more than likely why most poor people die, not enough money to pay for the correct diagnosis and be treated for it accordingly. What to do, what to do?
Stress elevates your glucose so I will now take a bunch of deep breaths and try to calm myself.
Dilemmas are for solving right? Right, and so I will eat healthy and keep monitoring my glucose and hope that it will temporarily recede to its former norms, and pray that we get a heat spell early in March, and the pool warms enough for me to exercise in it.
I will be getting blood work in April again and then we will be able to know more, we all know that worrying has never helped anything, it literally killed my mom. And so I will have to distract myself somehow.

Well, that’s it for now, and since it is I will wish you all a pleasant good night and ask you to count those blessings and we will too!
