    I had my quarterly lab work done last week. My A1C is great (5.1, yay) but my liver enzymes are through the roof.
    They should be between 2-46 and are 877. More blood tests are in the works for tomorrow. I haven't said anything on FB b/c only a couple of people there know about the test results.
    I'm anxious.

    You'll be in our prayers. Hopefully it is an anomalous result, and the other tests all come out closer to normal!

    Thanks, Karen. I've been trying very hard not to go into panic mode.
    I talked to my neurologist (I had an appointment with him Thursday night) and he said the # IS high but he has seen that # MUCH higher (over 11,000 was his example) so while it is good to be cautious and find the cause, by no means should I go into panic mode.

    I discussed it with him b/c of the medication he has me on - and because he & my endocrinologist talk about my treatment so they can talk about any results. (Yes they have my permission to discuss my care, I prefer they communicate together lol... it's awesome that they do! It's great too that they're on such good terms - their children are married and they share a grandchild.)

    I got my newest lab results back - One # is back to the "perfect" range and the other is just slightly elevated. Sooo... who knows what was going on last week! Either way, thank goodness!

    I told someone I'd get up at 7am to edit a paper. She was so thrilled! Then I remembered that I work an 11 hour shift tomorrow. I'm gonna be pooped!

    If water dries our skin out, then why do we slather on the hand and body lotion whose main ingredient is water, in an attempt to rehydrate/moisturize our dry skin???

    Why do the people frown in the "BEFORE" pictures for a product and smile in the "AFTER" photos?

    And why do the people in the "BEFORE" pictures always look a mess, and then they have nice clothes and hair and makeup in the "AFTER" photos.. regardless of what they are demonstrating before and after of?
