The doctor's office just posted my lab results from the blood tests and the urine tests they did today.
The labs all came back normal except the blood sugars. Blood sugars are much better than they were six months ago and almost in the normal range for a person without diabetes. 
My potassium levels are low so I need to eat more bananas and potatoes with peels on, which is how I prefer potatoes, anyway.
My kidneys are almost back in the normal range again now, too.
Now, you know everything we know.
I'm going to take a nap now. I hope everybody has a great night/day.

I even make mashed potatoes with the peeling still on them.

@DaddyEvil I wish I had same self control as you. I have insulin resistance but I kinda can’t stay away from sugar.

@flapiz I'm sorry you're having problems with sugar. I have sugar problems, too, but still eat some candy and drink soda once or twice a month. As long as my glucose tests come out okay, the doctor tells me not to worry about it.
Mostly, I eat chewy SweeTarts when I start craving sugar. Those are small balls and 40 of them makes up one serving. I eat a dozen or two of them and am happy. (That gives me less than 110 calories and less than 23 grams of sugar.)

Thank you. I was told what foods I needed to avoid before the hospital visit and am still following that diet, more or less. 
I have gone back to eating my favorite foods so think they were just being cautious before the surgery.1 person likes this

Thank you. 
I need your kids (and you and your hubby) to come over for a visit again. I still feel like a big boy but Pretty and one of my friends say they can definitely tell I've been losing weight.
The neurologist changed the appointment to the 24th of this month to talk about the tap.

@rakski Yeah, I know.
I'd bet I won't see the doctor even then. She either sends her secretary to talk to people or to pretend like she's a nurse.

I don't think I changed anything other than eating less at every meal. I still eat candy once in a while and drink a soda once or twice a month. Thank you.

Thank you.
I love spinach raw on my sandwiches and I eat sandwiches a lot during the summer. I like raw carrots. I eat a lot of fruits. I love raw tomatoes. I eat chicken and turkey on sandwiches. I also eat an ounce of sunflower kernels every day.

@sallypup Before the tests at the hospital, I wasn't allowed to eat turkey, spinach or carrots. They needed to get good reading so gave me a list of things I wasn't allowed to eat for four months before the test drain.
You're making me blush again.

@DaddyEvil How you are low on any vitamin or mineral is a mystery to me. You're an inspiration.

Our bananas are grown in Guatemala, Ecuador, Costa Rica, Colombia, and Mexico. I'd love to try bananas from the Philippines, too.
How have you been?

@sol_cee I'm glad you've been doing well lately and wish you'd come to myLot a tiny bit more often.
I've been having some problems lately and spent five days in the hospital. They were doing a test on me to see if draining off some cerebrospinal fluid would help with some of the problems. It really did make a big difference so I'm hoping now that the neurologist will put a shunt and hose into my head to keep draining small amounts off. I'm supposed to see her on the 24th to talk about that.

@DaddyEvil Wow, your bananas have quite the travel history! You should definitely try Philippine bananas sometime - I’d be curious to hear how you think they compare.
I’ve been good, just keeping busy. How have you been?

@eLdav1s Of course you will... When you come over and play cards with me. 
Or, you get tired of me teasing you about it.

Nothing feels quite as good as finding out you are normal with test results to back it up. Glad yours were good.

Thank you. Me, too. You can't imagine how fun it is to be on a strict diet and not know if you're making improvements until a doctor does urine tests on you. (I always forgot the doctor would want me to pee in a cup, so I'd go when I woke up and couldn't go when the doctor needed me to... )
