In a nut shell, this blog is about being healthier.  I have mentioned previously that heart health is particularly important for women (and men) with PCOS and/or diabetes.  It is my hope that following the guidelines that we have implemented for 2010 will maintain or improve my heart's health (and yours, too!).  In an effort to support this theory, I will periodically post results from lab work or meetings with my doctors.  <br /><br />Yesterday, at a routine appointment, I was told that my blood pressure was 115/65.  "Perfect," she said.  To put that into perspective, readings that are above 90/60 and below 120/80 are condsidered normal or healthy.  So, good for me!<br /><br />In the next few weeks, I am supposed to have blood work done showing lipid and cholesterol levels, thyroid hormone levels, and blood sugar.  I will keep you posted.
