OK, so I’ve been walking often, not every day, but most. When I walk its at least 1 mile, but I’ve been walking some days 2.5. Plus, I went to the Iowa State Fair twice, each day involving quite a bit more than 2 miles of walking. Unfortunately, the healthy walking was offset significantly by the unhealthy fair food.

After my last appointment, my Dr asked me to have blood drawn. She said she’d send a letter if there’s nothing of concern, or call if there was a concern. I got a call on Wednesday at 5:15 – Apparently my [tryglycerides][1] are way too high. In my defense, I did eat at [Long John Silvers][2] the night before, which I do only rarely. In hindsight, I probably should have waited an extra day to have my blood drawn.

The Dr. said I needed to make it a high priority to get into her office to discuss treatment. So, today I will go in and discuss that.
