Yahoo!!!! I thank the Lord , Roger and all the LDL people I am meeting! I had a blood work up done, 8-4-06 and saw the Dr 8-24-06. He said I was diabetic due the glucose reading of 139, I had started LDL about 8-21-06. Dr. ordered a fasting blood test done on 9-7-06 and I just got back from seeing Dr. Tan, he was elated, My bad cholesterol was way down, my blood glucose was down 29 points to 110, and I had lost 13lbs since 8-24 visit. He said whatever I was doing keep it up. I told him about LDL, so I am going to order him a book! I have tried so many things and nothing was long lasting, I even ended up in the hospital doing the Atkins thing and then gained 45 lbs to boot. I have no sweet or carb cravings at all. I used to think good bread was cake and craved pasta and dark chocolate, NOW I don't even miss it. I don't have to go back for 3 mo and then have to due a full glucose tolerance test. Now if my eyes would just improve from the cataract surgeries, I'd be in 7th heaven. God is sooooo good! and LDL is too.
......you absolutely are on the right road...you have excellent lab results in such a short time....if your blood sugars were borderline for diabetes,your dr should have done a hgbA1C...if he didn't,the next time you see him,ask him about it.....keep up the good work...............niki
