Went to the doc today( here my GP is an internist and he's my pdoc as well) all blood work came back super, I'm doing fine, lost 5 lbs....still wants me to join the y for the pool because of my arthritis and get more excercising done but in the water. He mentioned in kind of a relieved way that he hasn't seen me unstable! . I told him the laudta was a miracle drug with for me the unfortunate side effect of weight gain. He looked it up and agreed. Don't see him for six months. I really like this doc and trust him. The down side is that before I see him I need to get a colonoscopy, a Mamogram and a hearing test. I told him I'm fine without but he quoted studies of statistics for people my age and I acquiescenced.
