Well, here I sit, just thinking about how this past year of the stresses of unemployment, depression and anxiety have effected all my general health.

today I have to go pick up a special 3 day diet and a 'pee speciman bottle' from my doctor's lab to do a 3 hour fasting glucose tolerance test for this coming Monday. I will possibly get a dx of pre-diebetes. Who would have thunk

But for the past 6months or so I've been craving and stuffing myself with comfort foods and I've gained more than 20 pounds since last August...I've been living with my head in the sand and "one can't think/act clearly when one's head is up ones own butt"

last week I had a kidney function test done, my third one which showed abnormal levels, so from what I've been able to calculate, I have stage 3 kidney failure. Probably due to a lot of Celebrex due to oasteroarthritic aches and pains. Now what do I do - oh poor me I'm angery at all this junk and that's okay. I'm not angry with me...just frustrated. I don't usually acknowledge my feeling, so there, I did it.

I didn't think I would go down that road...I've been mostly healthy all my life. I go see my family doc on Tuesday next week and the kidney doc in mid July.

Stress really does take its toll on physical health and that sucks

Needed to rant - Just looking for a little support here at PC.

Sorry to be such a drag
