I got part of my blood work results back.  I have it done at the end of the year. 


My cholesterol was 113!!!!  In May it was 216!!!  My bad was way down too...  My good wasn't quite as good.  Was 34 I think and she said they prefer it to be over 40....  BUT as a non medical person I say that is pretty darn good numbers!!!!  Everything else looked 'ok'.  They still don't have my a1c.  I don't understand that.  Last year I went to the dr the next day or maybe 2 days later for something else and they already HAD my a1c.  My glucose was 97 so, I am hopefuly my a1c won't be too bad.

Cheryl,


Your numbers looked fantastic. It is sooooo hard to get your good numbers up and there aren't any medicines to help with that. My doctor keeps telling me to just exercise some more!!


By the way the ADA has raised the exercise goals for diabetics to 150 minutes per week. If you manage to do that it may and should raise your HDL.
