After a bunch of heart tests didn't turn up anything more than a minor blood pressure problem the doctor wanted to RE-RUN one of the test. I told him if I really did have an issue, the stress of owing him MORE money would not help it. I would let him know if I had any other problems. that's been over twenty years ago. Glad youre gonna be around awhile Larry. Not knowing sucks, bet your feeling better just knowing what the issue is.
Good to know that you have a game plan to get you back on track............man its tuff eating right though, I know.
Glad you're going to be alright. Your health is nothing to mess with. You've got to live long enough to finish all your projects an be a burden on your kids.
This falls under "Everthing I like to do is either illegal, immoral,or fatening" Get your health up and play hard.
Same thing happened to me,passed out, thought it was a stroke, lotsa tests and $$$$ and finally after a 2 month of being real sick, they found i had Hypoglycemia{ opposite of diabetes} Now on strict diet, no sugar at all, saw a dietician and following the "plan" eating right. Now i have a minimum of problems......
Will still always bring some of that TEXAS beer just in case........ Glad to hear that you are on the mend. Mark
Larry, I am sorry to hear this but I bet you will start feeling a lot better. My son was diagnosed with type 1 thirteen years ago. NO BEER???? That you make you go into menopause. (Your poor wife)
Glad to hear you ain't going anywhere just yet! Looking forward to hugging your slightly thinner self at the Drags next weekend!!
Holy Cow man didnt know.... Take care of yourself make sure you stay with the diet+ you will loose a bunch of weight...;-) Glad your still around to keep me on the straight with my cars..
Notice all TYPED IN ALL caps more small meals .. Not so much what you eat as amounts of what you do and when... Moderation and balanced checking b/s levels will mean something else now.. We won't call you sweetie or sugar lump any more... Very rapid weight loss is not needed as much as monitering your self.. Find a balance number watch out that low b/s is as bad or worse than high numbers it ain't a test to see how low you can get it! Hopefully a diet plan will be better than any medicine good luck
Glad to hear you are OK. I didn't get to the point of passing out, but I now have to take meds and watch what I eat and I should get more exercise, but that ain't happened yet. LOL. Guess we should run around the projects once in a while LOL Good luck to you
Glad your doing ok Larry... I try to have a glass of red vino every nite after dinner... Docs say it's good for the ticker... Who am I to complain with what the docs say??.... Cheers Larry!
Larry, you're like me...some of us are put here to endure....every long hot smelting day...kinda like the firery depths...the beer..one year its good for ya..the next year it causes cancer..few more years and it's good for ya....drink up!!!just hope that when your time does arrive, beer is not labled "bad" by the goverment
I was diagnosed with type 2 about a year ago now,I've since lost 85 lbs. I find it very easy to control and have never had a spike in my sugar levels. I didnt quit Beer either so theres hope for you...... Its not the end of the road just a bump in it.
Good to hear you are ok. Diabetes is very easily controlled. A little exercise and a diet change helped a friend of mine alot.
Larry Great to hear it was not more serious. A little diet and exercise won't hurt you I think the Beer and candy companies will be fine without your business. Just think of all the extra car money you will have.
yep the boys at wallstreet must have herd about you because the corona stock was down today!!! i hope this doesn't start a double dip recession! glad your o.k.
Sorry to hear about your health concerns....Glad to hear it wasn't a stroke. Take care of yourself.......Mike
Glad you are OK but, it is a shame that those Doctors are idiots, now=a-days almost everything can be checked with one simple blood test. Sometimes I think they are dumb purposely so they can test the hell out of you & make more money.
Oh man Larry, Im glad it wasnt something worse. I work in an ER and that is something we do to almost every patient, I say sue the ass off them!! Doc.
