((((((((((( Friends )))))))))))

Thank you all so very much.

My Dr. says for me to stick to a gluten free diet while she runs tests. I have wonderful news! My blood pressure and heart rate are just fine now! I also have not had a migraine for a little while. It's because the topral is used for migraines, too.

She asked me to drink Glucerna and try to eat protein like white chicken. I have probs swallowing meat of any kind so she said it was ok to put a littl low fat mayo or some bbq sauce on it. I am going to the health food place tomorrow and see if I can find some gluten free cereal.

She also told me that the reason I am not losing lots of weight is that I am not eating enough! I about fell out of the chair. She says anyone as tall as I am must have 1,500 calories a day to lose weight. I was ingesting 1,000 to 1,200/day and she said my metabolism shut down.

Maybe this is the opening chapter of a way to get a lot healthier!

Hugs to all!

Jan
