Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / September 2007Lots of Purrs For Everyone and Some For Me?
I haven't been posting much lately, not that I post a lot normally, so I thought I would let everyone know that I'm thinking about them and sending lots of purrs... I bought a new computer, a MacBook, and have been busy trying to transfer files and figure this new thing out. I can't seem to get Thunderbird to let me login to news.individual.net, which is what I've used in the past for newsgroups. I'm absoultely certain that I've got the account name and password correct (I even had them resend my information), so I don't know what's wrong. Finally gave up and am using the "less than great" Google groups. On the purr front, a few for me would not be amiss. I went in for my yearly physical/blood work last week and one test came back high, as in diabetic high. So we're redoing it tomorrow and we'll see what happens. I'm trying not to to be too worried. I know that even if I am diabetic, it is a very treatable condition and nothing to panic over. Still....... Well, purrs to everyone.....(I sure do hate these "fasting" tests...I'm HUNGRY!!!!) --Kim > I haven't been posting much lately, not that I post a lot normally, so > I thought I would let everyone know that I'm thinking about them and [quoted text clipped - 19 lines] > > --Kim Purrs for you, Kim. Sam, closely supervised by Mistletoe Purrs for good test results this time around, and for the fast to be over, well, fast. ;o) Donna, Captain, and Stanley Purrs are on the way. I hope this test comes out better.

I expect the docs have already told you what you can do to reduce the risk. Maybe Marina could help. ISTR that she is a type I(early onset) and you are likely to be a type II (late onset), but she may have some diet tips through her long experience that may help prevent you from having to go on to insulin. If indeed you do prove to have diabetes, which I hope you don't. I have a friend who has type II. She really didn't take it seriously enough at first and she acknowledges that now. Had she taken the advice she was given at first (to try and lose weight, follow the "you can eat almost anything diet sheet" from the hospital) she would not be on insulin now and has other problems that diabetes can bring. I am not trying to frighten you, honestly! although it may seem like that, but if you do prove to have diabetes treat it seriously. Best wishes for a good blood test result.

I'm certaintly going to take this seriously, am in fact already taking this seriously. I don't have much of a problem eating well. I love food and that includes veggies and fruits. Exercise is my problem. I'm a software engineer and work a 10 hour day Mon-Thursday and 8-9 hrs on every other Friday, much of that time either sitting at my workstation or standing around the test station. Finding time to do anthing much is difficult. However, I have joined a friend walking for 20-30 min at lunch most days. We walk around inside the buildings since it's still too hot to walk outside. Anyhow, thanks for your concern and rest assured, I will be taking this seriously. --Kim > Anyhow, thanks for your concern and rest assured, I will be taking > this seriously. Glad you've found a solution for the exercise, Kim. A 20-30-minute walk every day is great to start with. You don't have to start training for a marathon right away! ;) If there's anything I can help you with, just ask. I know there are several type IIs on rpca, so they may have info that is more pertinent for you. You can write privately, too. My address is not munged. SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban.

I use nntp.aioe.org instead of google groups and it's really good. Best wishes, Polonca and Soncek
