Today must have been the longest day for me ever! I had more blood work and urine testing last week due to the blood in my urine 3 weeks ago. The sample was sent to the hospital for testing and I was told the results would be in today. After looking at all the possibilities on-line the big “C” is what I feared as I didn’t seem to have symptoms of the other things listed. The weekend went really well but today after Bobby left I felt so alone and scared. It’s times like this when I don’t know how to pray that all I can really pray for is God’s perfect will to be done and just leave it in His hands.
Well, I finally received a call from my Dr’s office a few minutes ago saying everything was perfect – and no more blood! I have never been so scared and happy like this all in the course of a day ever! People, I truly could scream from the mountain tops and I thank my Heavenly Father for this good news today! Thank you Jesus!
Now all I need to do is bring the cholesterol down and I feel quite certain I’m going to be able to do just that. I’m asking for God’s help and also doing all I know I need to do as I believe God will help me if I help myself. I’m still on the same eating pattern eating at least 9 fruit and veggies – nuts – yogurt and consuming at least 21g of fiber and 50g of protein a day. I’m getting my protein through beans, nuts and the like and added soy to my diet as well. And as for my beverage, water is still my go to drink and have not had any diet soda in 2 weeks!
I knew exercise was a biggie and I just started my exercise program last week. Bobby got the wii fit for me last weekend and I’m putting it to good use. I’m exercising between 30 and 45 min a day and I’m thrilled that I have not skipped a day of exercise all week.
I’m so thankful for the warning and so happy the really big scare is over. Now I can concentrate on eating healthy and exercising. I have just over 2 months before my next cholesterol checkup and I hope to see a considerable change. I feel I’ve been given a new lease on life and I’m truly grateful and blessed.
I’m so glad for you! What a relief! And YAY YOU for sticking to your exercise routine! 🙂
That is GREAT news! It’s fantastic that you got the Wii fit. I’ve been wanting to try that out. It looks like fun.
Well what a relief for you!!! That was great news…
Hi Debbie. Glad to hear that you got a clean bill of health! Now keep up the good habits! Love the fall pictures in the previous posts. I sure wish I had scenery that pretty nearby!
Sometimes…we just need a good kick in the proverbial pants.
Glad it works for you. Good job! I have no doubt you will see way different #’s.
Debbie, so glad you got such wonderful news from your results!!
Oh, thank goodness! I’m so happy that you don’t have the terrible “C”. Blessings to you and I’m sorry you had to go through that worry!
Oh Debbie, I am just catching up…I can SO understand!!
I am still waiting on a cytology report for persistant blood in my urine too. I hope my report is great like yours!
Have a great trip to visit your parents!
