First blood results post op

[Nymea 87]

So I am coming up to 5 months post op now and have had my first post op blood done with excellent news. The numbers are whatever we use in Australia so they may not make a lot of sense to those of you in USA unfortunately.

So hba1c ( I am a diabetic) has gone from 8.5% to 7.0% and I have stopped all insulin and oral medications. Just on diet alone now.

Total Cholesterol down from 8.5 mmol to 4.0 (4.0 is considered normal here)

Ratios for the cholesterol measures are all in the excellent range

Liver enzymes down from 156 to 126 (normal is 115 maximum) ... so I still have a little way to go there but I am happy considering how many blood pressure tablets I was taking and that I am still on a few.

I am ecstatic about these results. I feel fantastic and am beginning to enjoy life again. Yes I still have some weight to go to goal, but that is less important to me now that my health is so much better.
