I saw Endo today. My triglycerides have come down over 100 points on the Met, and my "good" cholesterol has gone up! My bad cholesterol is a little higher than before, but I attribute that to the Birthday celebrations. I was quite bad. I made homemade lasagne for the first time! I shall share what I did and how I tweaked it so that I found it delicious instead of gross soon. I also ate lots of sugar free pie and a delicious pumpkin muffin from the Hub.
Now look at me getting all distracted by food. Anywho, thank God it indeed was as many of you observed, a case of insulin issues aggravating my triglycerides. Now I won't have to go on THAT kind of medication too. Now, I just have to get more pissed off over the fact that I have to investigate every little food decision while people way less healthy than I can shovel it in. Oh the sadness.
Speaking of birthdays. Happy happy to my wonderful Hubby! I wish Hallmark made cards as good for Daddies from babies as they do for Mommies from babies. The ones for hubbies aren't as good as for wifies either. Anyone else notice this depressing discrepancy? What the heck? Just because men express it less doesn't mean they don't like some good ole sappiness on their birthdays. Mine is a little sweetie under that crabby old man demeanor. ;-)

Well I am pleased that the medical tests looked good and you won't be needing anything drastic to help you along. Good news!!
Good news! Suck for the new meds but I hope they are a quick fix. And I totally agree on the card bit. I am a Hallmark addict and it's very rare to find a good Dad card!!!
We like to make our own cards (my husband is partial to bad poetry replete with alliteration) (I KNOW right! I'm so not crafty, mostly) -- because you are right, dad cards suck.
SO good to hear about your encouraging labs. Stay far far away from those statins. Bad news all around. (At some point soon I'll post all about it, but I want to make sure I do it properly, like your training posts.)
Good news! This whole insulin/metabolic thing is awful. I agree!
