From Blue to Red

No, not politics, silly. I continue to improve, it's a learning process on my part as I was never a endocrine guy.

My peaks and valley ratio is continuing to shrink as I figure out my intake and output ratio, the diuretic dosage, the diet aspect, etc. I feel markedly better than a week ago, starting to exercise, etc. Alas, there have been some permanent changes I need to make, no longer can I enjoy my evening glass of IPA, but it's a small thing. I have faith in my diagnostic acumen, even if I have some Doubting Thomas's (my cardio guy).

I'll be in Seattle the majority of the winter I believe. I'm hoping to get in one last summer in Butte, but a move is in the future.

Hope all of you are well, and thanks again for your moral support. It was very helpful.

    Yes, a hearty second to Arleen. No glass to raise; hops are a lousy vegetable anyway. Endo's are wise, wise people, and pick one considerably younger, so she outlives you. xxoo-Joanne

      Those fine looking young orthos put me back on my feet and throwing a shuttle. Just saying...

    Getting the balance right takes time. Seattle has more air than Butte.

    Mike-glad you are trending in the right direction. Sorry about the loss of your IPA-no even a shot glass?

      Actually, as shot would be fine, it's the carbs in the IPA.

    Yes, the improvement is good news. I hope you do get at least one more summer on the trout streams in the Montana mountains though I would caution you to avoid it in the winter. Does N/A beer have to be off the diet, too? St. Pauli Girl has one I like and SWMBO likes Clausthaler's version.

      Alas, it's the carbs in the beer with the ETOH that is hard on my kidneys. Hope you're well, Bruce.

    Sorry about the IPA - I sympathize since I've had to cut waaaay back myself. But so glad you continue to improve!
