Sorry I haven't updated for a while, but there hadn't been anything new to tell ya about.
I went to the Heart Dr. today. He was quite pleased with the blood pressure readings since I had been there last. He was also happy that I was off the diabetic medicine and also the Lisinopril medicine. He doesn't want to see me for 4 months and if everything is fine then, I won't have to go back for a year. I will keep my fingers crossed for that.
I was really being down because my scale had not moved for over 2 1/2 weeks. I have been doing everything that I am supposed to. I'm walking, riding the exercise bike everyday, and doing the other exercises that my physical therapist had given me and the scale would not move down. This morning before going to the Dr.'s I weighed so I could compare his scale to mine and I HAD LOST 2 lbs. When I got on the Dr.'s scale I was down 6 lbs. and I had clothes on. Now I can't wait to go the the surgeon on Thursday to see what his scale says.
My brother Ken is coming down for a visit next week. I can't wait to see him. Its been almost two years since I was up in Chicago and saw them. I'm hoping to be able to go up there in either late June or early July.
My kids gave me gift cards for my birthday last month and I bought some new clothes. I was able to buy size 2X, I was in a 4-5X. I have taken in some of my old tops that I really like, I wear them everyday and save the newer ones for church or going out.
I'm going up to McAllen tonight again to the support group meeting, they are having a speaker on Medication Do's and Don'ts. I think it should be quite interesting.
Well that is all I can think up for now. Will update after Thursday when I see the doctor that did the surgery.
