Hittman's Hideout

[hittman]

I did too. I have a doctor's appointment scheduled for this afternoon. I haven't been feeling normal lately and was kind of weak feeling all weekend for the most part.

Hopefully nothing serious.

I had blood drawn at the lab. I think I may have caught a stomach bug that is lingering but the doc wanted the lab to make sure I wasn’t anemic or something.

Diabetic?

 

[hittman]

Diabetic?

I sure hope not.

 

[FranC]

I sure hope not.

Could be something they were just testing for.

 

[hittman]

Good morning.

 

[FranC]

Good morning, hitt

I just finished checking emails here at work and am about to get up and get started working. I'll see how my energy level is today but am guessing I'm going to need a few breaks in between working on stuff.

Is good to take breaks when you need them

Hitt, when I got to 50 other than some other serious issues, I started injecting Vitamin B-12, and also my doctor prescribed Testosterone injections every 2 weeks. Of course I take multi-vitamins and Joint related compounds. Along with working out it seems to help.

I take a multivitamin, fish oil, an extra 1000mg of vitamin c, and a joint compound. It has really helped with my leg pain that I used to have a lot. I know I've got arthritis in at least one leg. You're definitely right about the exercise helping. I'm taking a break from exercise until I feel better.

PT, why do you have to inject the B12 instead of just taking a capsule or something?

What do you think is helping with your leg? I have a bad knee.

I'd have to double check when I get home but think this is the one I'm taking. I know I got it at Sam's.

[FranC]

Thanks. I’m not a member of Sams anymore but sure I can find it elsewhere

Hitt, it has something to do with water or oil soluble vitamins. B-12 in tablets just gets ...... out.

 

[hittman]

I got my lab results back. My cholesterol was a little high but I didn’t fast before the lab so I don’t know if the number is accurate or not.

 

[PTJD]

Good Morning. The one they might have been looking for was a fasting blood sugar.

 

[hittman]

Good morning. I’m going to schedule a physical in a month or so and fast for the blood test so I know I have accurate numbers.

 

[FranC]

Good idea, hitt
