Seems like a bunch of relatively minor health issues have been piling up on me lately. Most of them fixable if I lost about 40 pounds... Torn meniscus in my right knee, a migraine headache, stomach virus, cholesterol is high, blood pressure is high, weight is high, there was a fear (and actual brief diagnosis) of two strokes... The birthday celebration wasn't one of the happiest days in my life - a good portion of it was spent at two doctor appointments. (Lucie did pull off a church surprise party so a bunch of people did sing Happy Birthday to me and we had some excellent Costco cake!) Could be a lot worse - I recognize that. So now I am lined up for knee surgery, the "strokes' turned out to be insignificant anomalies in my brain, taking more fish oil pills for the cholesterol (I can now hold my breath underwater for 43 minutes...), and I am taking a low dose blood pressure pill (and monitoring my blood pressure at home). The good news is that there is no more room in my daily pill container so that means nothing else can go wrong...
