    And they're a bit, well, meh nothing life threatening, yet, but the normal stuff most folk know about.

    Kidney function; Normal
    Liver; Normal
    Cholesterol; 5 - 6
    BP; 140/100
    Weight; Too much, OK OK 130Kgs
    Smoking; Quit it
    Alcohol; Half it

    OK so my BP is high, and my cholesterol is borderline, although he did say my lipoproteins were slightly elevated but probably down to the booze.
    He's given me a month to straighten up ...

    Funny little buggers ain't they?

    Bloody things get everywhere, well except black coffee can you live on coffee alone, it'd save a whole heap of hassle down the road?

    240 in a milkshake

  3. Before

    Hullo everyone

    Well time has caught up with me, 40 this year, and the doc is worried about pretty much every aspect of my general health.

    To this end I was shipped off to have an armful drawn and get to have a full run down and results on Thursday.

    I'm not looking forward to it one little bit, I smoke what I like, drink what I like and haven't sought out exercise in many a year.
    What he will tell me probably won't come as a surprise, but ...

  4. depression strikes but I feint and strike back...take that black dog

  5. Cold Turkey is harder than it looks.............

    by , 13-01-13 at 21:14 (Musings of a hairy Irishman.............)

I wouldn't sell the Bandit, I would be keeping the shed and I'm very fond of the old beast anyway, co it could stay, the fighter just needs paint, the ST would go on Gumtree and the assorted ...
