Regular exercise is important for your health, but to be safe it is always recommended to getting your exercise approved by your doctor to make sure the level is safe for you.
I hope this helps.
My insurance company approved me for the occipital nerve stimulator!! yay!!!! I meet with the rep tomorrow to learn how to use it. I'm scheduled for surgery for the trial on Feb. 23rd!! I have so much to do by them because they said I need to see my primary for a physical as well as have some labs done. So a lot to organize!!
Plus the last I talked to them they didn't want me going to class or work the week I had the trial...
I am guessing if it gets approved(maybe 3 or 4 weeks?) that I will start maybe around the end of Jan or the beginning of Feb.
I got the call from the doc's office yesterday. Medicaid has approved my 12 week course of Sovaldi/Ribavirin. I start next week as soon as the meds arrive. I have to be extra careful not to drop one of those $1000 pills in the toilet......
How alarmed should I be and what can I do to fix or improve. I have already started a low carb low fat diet and started an aerobic exercise program. I am on 5mg of lisinpril for hypertensionl; my BP is now 120/77.
m also on a low sodium, low carb, no caffeine, and no sugar (I use Splenda or truvia). All of which is OB approved.
If possible, it can be helpful to meet with a dietician or nutritionist to help you understand what foods will fuel your body without spiking your blood sugar. A regular exercise program (approved by your doctor) can also be helpful. Limiting alcohol, fried/fatty foods, and obviously strict management of your carbohydrate intake are also important.
I hope this helps.
Hi,
I would change my diet to a low carb diet. A lot of news has been coming out about low carb and I am doing low carb. It has really helped me keep my BG down to an acceptable leval.
You might try researching the Dr. Bernstein diet for diabetics. It really works and does not affect a person in any bad way. You also do not have to starve yourself on this diet. I eat between 2000 up to 3000 calories a day but those calories are coming from low carb food.
I was the same way as you ore pregnancy and ever since finding out I have GD I've been out on a pregnancy approved diet that limits your carb intake. I've maintained the same weight now for five weeks which in pregnancy reality it means I've lost weight while the baby continues to gain weight. It's perfectly healthy and all you have to do is eat frequently but limit out carbs and sugars. Even this late in my pregnancy I feel much better about myself than I did months ago!
Obese adults followed one of the two diets for two years. Those on the low-carb diet had significantly higher cravings for carbohydrates and high-fat foods, although they were less bothered by hunger.
Dr. W. I'm sure you've heard the phrase "fat and happy." Well, it's not just folklore. The same carbs that make you fat (and contribute to diabetes and other problems) also make you happy. It's simple science: Carbs allow more of the amino acid L-tryptophan to penetrate your brain. The L-tryptophan triggers your brain to make more serotonin, and the serotonin makes you feel happier. It's as simple as that!
no mood swings, or anything like that). Most other communities online suggest I put crystals under my mattress and use peta-approved detoxing ear candles. So I'm fairly lost atm, and any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
I wanted to let everyone know my insurance company approved the 3 meds (Incivek, peg and riba). They have approved the incivek for the first 4 weeks. At that time if my blood results are where they need to be, they will approve the next 4 weeks and so on. If I do not respond the peg and riba has been approved for the course of the tx. Positive thoughts here, praying to be undetected so I can keep using the new meds. I am very excited to say the least.
Well folks it does help with periferal neuropathy. I had it so bad I could not sleep and it occupied my every waking moment. Now after 1 month on it I can sleep, my carb crave is up and my weight is up a tad and my sugar is up as well. i thik I may go back to the topamax for the headaches and weight gain, but at least my feet and legs are not on pins and needles all of the time.
