Went to the cardiologist yesterday

[2Far ★]

Follow-up with the doc himself after last month's echo & bloodwork. 

Bloodwork is mostly good, except glucose is elevated. He going to run an A1C on my next regularly scheduled blood work. 

The beast is mostly OK, though the left ventricle chamber is enlarged since the last echo. It can be because of the Mitral valve murmur or under controlled BP. Echo next year to try to pin it down. 

Ya gotta be tough to get old.

Glad the report was mostly positive and hope the good news continues!

A1C = 5.6; total cholesterol = 154

He just said to continue to lose some weight.

4 months. I have a few "issues". I'm on the echo-a-year program.
