A below-30 patient came today. Last year he visited another doctor. According to the clinic record, he visited with the typical symptoms of diabetes mellitus. His random blood sugar was 655 mg/dl (the normal limit is 70-150 mg/dl) and triglyceride was 654 mg/dl (the normal range is 50-165 mg/dl). Very high blood sugar and blood lipids! He was referred to a nearby diabetes center. According to him, he was given medicines from there but he only continued for 3 months. Then he stopped the medicines. He mentioned that he was on regular exercise!
For the last couple of weeks, he again started having symptoms; weight loss, increased thirst, increased hunger, increased urine output! So, he decided to visit a doctor. This time his fasting blood sugar was 365 mg/dl (normal limit 60-110 mg/dl), total cholesterol was 246 mg/dl (normal limit < 200 mg/dl) and triglyceride was 184 mg/dl. Both of the time, his blood pressure was normal.
He was having uncontrolled diabetes with typical symptoms, and abnormal lipids. Both conditions are damaging every system of his body gradually but surely! Exercise alone is not sufficient to keep these two chronic conditions under control. He needs help with the medications. I emphasized continuing the medications this time. I also suggested that he continue to exercise and concentrate on the diet.
It was a good decision that he decided to see a doctor to properly manage the two diseases considered silent killers.

I took the Health Assessment test some of the questions were hard for me to choose the right answer. I thought I would share my results with you.
Your Overall Health Score: 41
Body Mass Index (BMI): 17.16- I know this is low, no matter what I do I can not gain weight, I have been skinny my entire life.
EXERCISE AND ACTIVITY LEVEL: MODERATE- it was hard to answer this one because I do not exercise but I am actively working outside as long as my back holds up.
HEART HEALTH: Concerning- I am not sure why I scored concerning unless it was because there is a history of heart disease in my family.
DIABETES RISK: HIGH- I do not know why this is high either
METABOLISM: NEEDS IMPROVEMENT- ????
SLEEP: 5 to 6 HOURS- they suggested CBD oil to help with sleep, I started taking this a few weeks ago, and the nights I remember to take it I get more sleep.
HYDRATION LEVEL: LOW- I have always had problems with being dehydrated even though I keep a big glass of either water or lemonade with me at all times.
PROTEIN INTAKE: MEDIUM
STRESS LEVEL: HIGH- this did not surprise me, it is hard not to be stressed when my two youngest children are on drugs and live with us.
SOCIAL INTERACTION: LOW all I can say about this one is I am a homebody, I do not go many places.
TOXIN LOAD: LOW

Thanks for taking the assessment. My score was 54 :)
I think that your BMI is a little low, which indicates that your metabolism needs improvement.
Stress is a killer! Sorry that you are going through it.
Your BMI is not that much low. If you are living your whole life like that, nothing to worry about it I think.
The tool came to life only for a couple of days. If any discrepancy, I hope that they will fix it.
Thanks.

Thank you. I wish I could relieve my stress level, it is hard when you love your children, even at their ages but it is causes more stress with my husband, he thinks they should be out of the house, but that would mean they will be living on the streets. I worry more when I do not know where they are. Either way, I am stressed.
I would have thought your score would have been much higher than 54 with the exercise you do and being a Dr. But maybe 54 is a good score.

Thank goodness, the patient decided to get medical help fast.
Yes. He did the right thing, after doing it in the wrong way for over a year :)
Thanks for stopping by :)
