It is two years after open heart surgery and my yearly cardiologist check up!
Here is the good news!
1 - Still breathing! I feel pretty good & I am able to do almost anything I want to do - golf, walk & exercise, travel, etc.
2 - Blood Pressure today 115/75 - great! Happy with that!
3 - Total Cholesterol - Total 175 Not Bad, remember my high 10 years ago - 300!!
4 - Almost all other levels are great!
Bad news?
1 - Total Cholesterol is 175 which is OK, but HDL is 31, needs to be above 40 & LDL is 100, Doctor wants it 75 or below!
2 - Liver results not good - AST (SGOT) at 67, should be between (13-40) & ALT (SGPT) is at
122, should be between (7-52). So, diet change!
3 - Still getting PVC's -seem to still be exercise induced as the heart rate gets to 110-120.
Game Plan?
Go back in two months!
Eat better - veggies & fruits!!!
Lose weight - At 195, try to get to 180!
Will have another Stress Test in March & wear a Holter Monitor to check PVC's!
Let the FUN begin!!!
