Hi all!  I had a doctor appt today and got the results from my blood work.  Good News first!  my A1c is 5.3..  More good news, my cholesterol is down to 166!  :)


Bad news...  The doctor found a lump of tissue in my breast and is sending me for tests.. :( I guess it is good that we found it now, but still it's bad that it is there.

Well done on your blood test results! You must be working very hard at being healthy. Sorry to hear of the other problem though, hopefully it is nothing to worry about.

Tara,


Congratulations on your good report and I am crossing my fingers that nothing serious comes from the lump that your doctor felt. Please let us know what you find out. We will be worrying until we hear from you.

You're in a scary spot right now, but remember it is not exactly positively a certainty that you have a 'bad' lump.
