Glad to hear the wellness check went as expected, Nancy. Hope the blood numbers do, too.
Harmony, I kept wanting to respond to your last post in the other thread and we went to the end of the month and Dee changed it promptly, of course. My problem was I couldn't think of bright things to say anyhow. Thyroid and palpitations are mentioned together often, and I don't know how they are interlaced. I do know I'm happy you've had a dr monitor and reassure you about your readings.
Also, I think I'd already said that I shouldn't be flippant about your dr's concern about cholesterol. I realize that just because our dietary efforts may not make impressive number difference in blood cholesterol numbers, that doesn't mean they aren't greatly worthwhile. Neither HRH or I have had our chol/trig counted lately and it's not that we have no interest, of course. I guess we are just doing the active, scrutinizing-the-eating thing, and in the backs of our minds we figure that the longer we go, maybe the better a number or two might be. Not that we would change anything, anyway.
Hope I can print 4x6 recipe cards (if they don't get stuck in the printer) of a few smoothie recipes to exchange with B at church, who is hopefully past her ovarian cancer scare, with a little lump in the breast which is shrinking. Happy for her.
