I just got home from the doc's office.

The stress test showed no problems
He gave me prescriptions for Blood pressure, diabetes, and cholesterol.

My BP is already down to normal levels

I have to reduce my carbs...

Thanks to everyone for the calls and e mails...they all brightened up my days!

I still have to deal with the 25,000 pay cut that hit me 12/1, so we willl see what happens. At least no surgery!

Happy Holidays to everyone! And thanks again!

Well, to tell you the truth Howard, we don't need to eat as much as had to when we younger....I have learned to stay away from the hi sugar Blender parties and snacks, as well as the over strength beer I was raised on ...and burgers are on those low carb flat buns ......

But MGD 64, Canadian 67 and Bud Select 99 are my usual cooler contents now....And Chicken wings will stay ! except at hooters where they really do suck

The Carbs are whats killin me, i cut out alot of sugar,most of the time anyhow, I really need an appetite
Suppressor.
The Diabetes works on all your internal organs, especially the Heart and kidneys.

Howard, take the meds and work on the diet, it should make things Better noticibly in a short time. I try to exercise, but sometimes theres not enought time in the day for that, but that DOES Help Too.

I been do'in it for the last 5 years Howeird! Had a very simliar DR visit as you did. One of the reasons one hardly ever sees "phrog juice" around is the high sugar content. Remember the drs say red wine is good for yer heart!!

Great news Howard! Is the doc also gonna prescribe Viagra? Seems like all the meds you have to take to help you usually cause a different problem. devil LOL, Teasing you! So good to hear no surgery.
Good luck with the 25,000 pay cut. I didn't make 25,000 combining the last 2 years. Times are bad! Brad

Actually the BP med he gave me also is designed to protect the kidneys from the diabetes..
