Okay, so first of all, holy crap how did I manage to get a total cholesterol number of 125?
I am going to have to figure out what I am doing differently than before, so I can keep doing it.
Plague Flu 2011 continues apace. Day 15 now. Eyedrops gotten for secondary pinkeye infection. They are working well, and my eyes already are starting to feel better. On the upside, I have felt so crappy, I haven't been eating much, and who knew that coughing so hard and nearly continuously, would be such great exercise? I have lost 5 lbs since getting sick.
Of course, that might have something to do with the oddly low cholesterol numbers.
I said to Derek: Hey, you ever get bloodwork back where you think the numbers can't possibly be right?
D: Dunno, what do you mean?
Me: My cholesterol is 125.
D: Your TOTAL cholesterol??!!
Me: Yeah
D: Yeah, that can't be right.
hahah. except it probably is. as bizzare as that may be.
Anyways, I realized that I hadn't updated my 'numbers' in quite some time.
Not that anyone has a burning desire to know them. :)
