Well, I am still here and in a much better frame of mind. The doctor's appointment was regarding my blood test - it turns out that my triglycerides and glucose readings are extremely high - triglycerides up to 200 - which is not good - opening the door for Diabetes. And they redid my pap smear - which turned out ok.
So - got on the ball and found lots of info about all this and found a really good site for a low glycemic diet. And it is actually working! I have lost several pounds and hopefully the numbers have gone down. - And I eat a whole lot of veggies and fruit - have changed my rice to busmati and have cut out sugars and lots of fat - so hopefully this will work better and maybe I can get off some of these meds.
I have a doc's appointment this morning - my usual 3 month check-in - and hopefully he will schedule a blood test to see how all this is going....
