My Dr's Appointment

I've not long been back from my doctors appointment & I could just cry right now! Dr F. didn't tell me anything I didn't already know. He said that I need to lose weight or I will be a diabetic. Just want I feared he would say but I knew that he would anyway.

He said that we needed to repeat the GTT in twelve months.

My records had been forwarded from Dr L's clinic now and he read through the test results and stuff from the blood tests I had done back in December. I still cannot believe that he was just as surprised as Dr L was when it came to my cholesterol level. He said it was very good. I know it is good it always has been. Why should the doctors be surprised? My thinking is they see fat person they see cholesterol problem. Well he is wrong.

Oh and my thyroid gland isn't working too well. Dr. F said that it is working overtime and is not producing enough hormone. Which one it produces I have no idea but it's not doing what it is meant to. He's written up more blood tests for that. So I'll have to go next week for that because tomorrow is a public holiday here. Dr. F also said I don't need to worry about this because it is easily fixed if it doesn't return to normal. Yeah more tablets right!!

So I'm not a very happy camper right now. I don't like being told I am overweight even though I know it is true. It just scares me to think I might end up like Mum and Wayne.
This is going to be so hard! I don't know if I have the gumption to see this through.
