Ok.....MD called me back with my Blood test results.
Said my thyroid was ok, but that my sugar levels were elevated.
He said norm for this test was 74-106...mine was 110. Not excessive, buit kind of a red flag. Explains a lot about my diet, I think. My father was a diabetic, and had to take insulin by injections. MD wants to see me back in two weeks, to check BP and sugar levels again.
Any advice on bodybuilding goals/diet reference the above elevated sugar levels?

Boy- I wouldn't call that a red flag... but more like near normal... yeah.. a little high but... certainly wait to see what it is next time after a fast.
My grandfather, father and brother all diabetic... so I keep an eye on this too.

Well...I'm no bodybuilder....but I am diabetic..I will say this...do not take Gaspari Hadrolol or whatever they call it....it will mess you up...it's ok if you're not diabetic....but contraindicated if you are....also...stay away from women....hehehe...just kidding:} |

well at least your docs being vigilant Frank and yes it could explain any fatigue or dizzy spells that aren't attributable to your BP.
I guess he will do more bloodwork in the coming weeks?

Pics....I don't care for Gaspari or his products. Met him once and he was very "aloof". Stay away from women? Guess I'm gonna die!  Becks: Yes..I have a follow up on my BP and blood work in two weeks. |

A blood sugar of 110 is a NO FLAG. I wouldn't even think twice--heck, I wouldn't even think once about it. That is a NORMAL blood sugar.
Continue with training/diet as usual.

Also....that wasn't a swipe at Gaspari products...just that one that I knew about....As I said...I'm not a bodybuilder...but...I actually use the Gaspari Superpump250....I drink it instead of coffee in the morning.....vrrrooommmm!....hehehe |
