I'm supposed to take both. My doc won't find out that I'm only taking one of them until after I'm retested 2 months from now. Whether I inform him sheepishly or triumphantly will depend on what the new test results are. Of course if I have a stroke or heart attack between now and then I'll be sorry I second-guessed the doc.
The biggest thing working in my favor, IMO, is that I was sufficiently frightened by the lab results that I've reduced my drinking radically since being informed of those results 5 days ago. The second biggest thing is that being on the NSAID Meloxicam for the past week has enabled me to engage in a tad more physical activity, and the third biggest thing is that I've cut the fats I was consuming by about two thirds. I've only done it for 5 days, but I think I can keep it up. I'd gotten really careless about it.
Good job Bells! If you hadn't gone for your check up you wouldn't have known about any of this so you made a good decision to go.
we recently got our tax return and lucky for me there was a little more than expected…it afforded me to buy a GMZ from the classies and a Jac and hubs a new chain saw. Now we're poor again but happy
Yay! Good for you! Mike and I got Jacs and are really liking them.
