Well.... my college was having this women's health day thing (but guys went too). I got a LOT done today.

And my working out is paying off.

- BMI is 34.1 (still high, but not as high as it was!)
- Blood Sugar was 94
- Cholestoral was less than 150 TOTAL (non fasting)... the machine couldn't tell me exactly what it was cause it was low.... but it used to be high!!
- BP was 138/80
- Pulse was 88
- Hearing was good.
- Spine was good (chiropractor said its the best he's seen)

Then I got a tarot card reading. That was interesting. Never got one before and I don't think I necessarilly believe them ....... but she knew a LOT about me. About my high BP, about my health problems, about girls, she knew so much and I swear I didn't say a word..... she even "guessed" that someone very close to me was "overseas". How the heck?

Anyway.... thats that.

The fortune teller around here built a nice new building for herself right on the bayou, but turns out she was running a brothel out of it with fortune telling as a front.

did your cholesterol use to be really high? my cholesterol dropped quite a bit due to a thyroid condition, and i am saying this because your pulse seems a bit elevated. no i am not a doctor but have a ton of health issues.

Cool. Good for you for watching your health.
I have a lab order from my doctor. I have to go have a bunch of the stuff that men over 40 get, like blood work, the ol butt-o-scope, and all that. I'm 46, and I've put it off. I just don't do doctors and hate bad news. I don't know how I'm not gonna eat for a full day before. :(
After that, I'm getting a full physical, chest x-ray, tread mill, EKG, etc.
Am I going to die?

I had a friend who was 50 years old, drop dead on the treadmill during a physical. Ever since, I've been afraid of a rigorous physical.
