YEARLY MED CHECK.

Quite a mixed bag this time around , nothing too serious though.

diabetic HBA1C blood test came back scoring 35 … that’s actually 3 points lower than last year and well below pre diabetic levels. Considering I’m now not on medication it’s a fantastic result and means I’m managing my diabetes without any assistance , just diet controlled.

The bad news is it appears I’m suffering depression and anxiety. The term the doctor used was called carer syndrome or carer burnout as it’s otherwise known. I’ve been on 2 types of medication for this for a few weeks and it seems to be settling the anxiety quite well so I’m happy to stay on them for a while.

All other tests came back within safe levels other than a serum ALT level that appears to be too high so that needs to be rechecked in a few months.
