barbieq13's Journal, 10 March 2015

Physical therapy is going well. I am allowed 10 minutes on a bike now and I may soon be allowed to walk 1/4 mile. I still haven't seen more weight loss, but I was put on diabetes med (even though I'm BARELY pre-diabetic) that is playing havoc with my stomach. They say I won't lose no matter what I do because of my inability to metabolize sugars. They say I am insulin resistant. Just got up to the full dose this past week, so we'll see how that goes. Will get checked this week also to see if my thyroid numbers are finally where they belong. Menopause, no thyroid, pre diabetes, extensive arthritis, and 3 orthopedic surgeries in a year. It's GOT to get better.

Just hang in there Barbieq it will get better. Stay with the PT (pain and torture) and it will start paying off. I found that I gained 10 lbs in 2 weeks when they put me on insulin and I finally got that off in the last 2 months. I know it gets overwhelming but we have to take it a day at a time. You can do this!
