[acb-diabetics] meeting

[Patricia LaFrance-Wolf]

Marilyn,
Exercise does help with the HDL, but sometimes it is an inherited thing an
no matter the amount of exercise, the numbers will still not go up  much.

Hi Dee,

I forgot one thing when I sent the first message wishing you good luck 
tomorrow.

My HDL is higher than yours, but it is still not as high as they would like 
it to be.  I have been told repeatedly that the only to bring it  up is 
exercise.  I exercise pretty regularly most of the time.  My strength and 
balance have improved but they are still not happy with the HDL.  I know you

won't be exercising very much in the immediate future, although I imagine 
you will have some physical therapy at some point.  Once you are able I 
would encourage you to participate in some kind of exercise.  There are even

exercises that can be done in a wheelchair.

Best of luck tomorrow.

Marilyn

    Hi Pat and All,

As far as I know I will be on the meeting on the 27th.  I go into the 
hospital tomorrow morning at 9:30 to have surgery for a knee replacement. 
Surgery is scheduled for 11:30.  I will be out of the hospital and home 
hopefully on August 23rd.

I went for my preop check on the 7th and got my A1C report.  It was realoly 
great this time at 5.4.  My cholesterol was 95 and the triglycerides you 
below 200.  I ned to work on bringing up the good cholesterol, though.  It 
was 25 and they like it to be around 40 or 50.  I guess I have to eat more 
dark greeen vegetables but if anyone has any suggestions please pass them 
along.

Will talk to everyone at the end of the week or over next weekend.

Dee
