It's been 2 yrs since my health crashed (May-2023)
.jpg)
life can be when you lest expect it, take it seriously...
When my health crashed on me I had no idea how close I could be from
death till after the Dr's & other people told me everything I had went
through, Today "3-1-2025" I've mostly recovered from it all with the
help of God giving me that 2nd chance in life that most people don't get.
I have been doing a lot of learning about my health with my sugar &
my food on what I can & can't have, I have a lot of concerns & fears
that I could have a relapse with my pancreas, kidney, Liver, & heart.
I don't want to go through what I did the first time, so I have to find
ways to make sure it DOESN'T happen again or anything goes bad
so when I went to my main Dr. yesterday I had to make up a little
lie about having some pain in my sides to get a CT scan done. 😀
I didn't know if she would fall for it or not but after taking a few
test (blood & urine) come to find out I have a few issues that got
her concerned to have a CT scan done, so I'm glad I got it done.
So Tomorrow I have to go to the hosp, to get a cholesterol test &
a CT scan & have my sugar test & hopefully by Friday I will
hear something back on what's going on & what's next for me.
I just pray that I don't end up back in the hosp again & have to
end up staying for any long length of time, or have any kind of
surgeries, that's going to be a major set back & going to suck. 😩

Once I find out what they find from all the test I'll know what they
plan to do next, either surgery or more meds, Either way I
hope & pray it's not serious, like I said earlier life is too short.
3-15-25 this is what my test results came back as
from what my sugar Dr. has sent me.
Unfortunately, once your pancreas is no longer working,
you can't really do much to make it start working again.
Now you kind of have to do your pancreas's work for it,
Meaning checking your blood sugars and taking your
insulin as prescribed (before meals and your once daily
insulin as prescribed).
Your TRIG is your Triglycerides. This is the fats
floating in your blood stream. We want it to be less
than 150. To get those down, continue working on
getting better blood sugar control. Your A1C was
9.0%, the goal is less than 7.0%.
You can lower your triglycerides by limiting
sweets and processed foods made with white
flour. Limit fried foods, try to eat baked,
grilled or broiled foods instead.
Increase your physical activity level as you
are able, most people need about 150 minutes
of walking a week. You can try these things.
If it's not coming down more, we can try adding
something called Vascepa which is a prescription
strength omega 3.

I'm concerned of the side effects it
may or could have on my system.
I'm very picky what I put in my
body & what it could or would do.
So to be on the safe side I think
I'll work on doing more research on
{certain types of foods} I need to eat.
I have a microwave & air fryer oven
& a crockpot, to cook with but at the
moment don't have a place for them.
Once I have my Kitchen in order
where I can get the foods I need to
eat in here, I'll make me up a food
list that I can go by when shopping.
Start eating "less" ultra-processed foods < 👀
I also can work on getting more
active once I get the cabin fully done
Cause everything will be in place.
I also can work in the yard now that the
winter season is over for a few months👍
That will be a "BIG help" right there.
Working in the yard when the weather is
right is always good but when the weather
isn't right I can work inside the cabin.
I have videos of things I can do for the
extra activity I need to keep my sugar
in check everyday, so that's my agenda.
