[QUOTE="Star*, post: 321457, member: 4964"] ML - Another thing that came to mind while I was driving home tonight thinking about this post. I also had a physical BEFORE I started doing this. I had general blood work done to test for basic things like anemia (because I have Thalassemia trait - like a funky anemia) and should take iron every day. Women often do not get enough iron in a multi-vitamin and need a supplement as we get old..I mean more matu.....age.....um.....as we become smarter. hm....That sounds better. Women need more stuff as our bodys get smarter because we've used up so many smarts our minerals and nutrients get depleted. Wow - that sounds good. It can't hurt to just have a general physical, and have your cholesterol screening, and blood work, urinalsys - JUST in case there is a slim chance that you ARE glucose intolerate or resistant. The big difference is - medication to help regulate the insulin. I take Metformin in a pill once a day and it's helping regulate the insulin - diet alone at this point will not do it. FYI. Thought you should know that. It's because I am borderline diabetic. If I don't live this lifestyle I will be diabetic. My cholesterol is ridiculously low - it's like that of a 17 year old girl. Go figure. But the rest of me is whacked. At least I got one good gene in this adoptive quagmire. lol. That and I'm the pretty one. :raspberry-tounge:haha You may want to just do this to have a starting point too. I'm not saying that sugar IS the culprit. I'm saying it's a possibility. There could be any number of things going on that you should get checked. It's possible you have something else going on and I'd hate to think that you took this advice as "word up" forgoing a physical. So first thing first - Get Thee in for a physical. IN THE MEAN TIME? Try this. m K? Hugs Star [/QUOTE]
