Hi all you wonderful TE women! My WiFi has been awful --- so no posting for the last two weeks, and I really missed reading the threads and posts!

Bottom line: repeat mammograms and ultrasounds by the wonderful breast cancer (woman) doctor = looks good, probably just fatty tumors in both breasts; no indication of anything bad; she plans a needle aspiration on the one that's on the surface (that we can feel and see), but she expects to get nothing since it's probably (90% sure) fat. She did say 10% of all cancers do NOT show up on mammograms and ultrasounds, so ladies, be informed of that amazing shocking fact! Will know in a week or so, but God has blessed me to have good results on everything so far.

Problem no. 2 = postmenopausal uterine bleeding; my new gyn lady doc did a transvaginal ultrasound and it was normal!! then she did a biopsy (and the specimen probe got stuck in me but she got it out, much scarring on the cervix because of multiple cauterizations in the past so cervix was like a vise) and the biospy came back NORMAL!!! So, evidently, a hormonal imbalance caused the bleeding and there's no concerns whatsoever, I do not need a hysterectomy!!! Weeehhoooooo!

Problem no. 3 = type 2 diabetes diagnosed a month ago; in two weeks, my Hemoglobin A1C test dropped from 6.5, which is clinical diabetes, to 6.1, which is pre-diabetes. Testing daily with my new glucometer shows consistent NORMAL blood sugars!! So it is under total control and in "remission" due to correct diet and exercise. If I get my A1C down to 5.9, I am no longer diabetic! I've lost 10 lbs, have dropped my cholesterol from 202 to 159, which is fantastic, and my LDLs (bad cholesterol) went from 147 down to 112 and need to be at 70 for my conditions!

My blood pressure is great, I'm eating carefully, exercising three times a week, riding my bike, swimming and doing home exercises. I feel great and I am the healthiest I've been in my whole last 20 years! I still need to drop 140 lbs, but all my problems are going away with the biking and exercise, diet.

I pulled a muscle and tendon in my rt leg out of place (that won't come back ever) but I am still biking, up to mid gear range, 4th gear, 8 plus miles per hour and 6 miles at a time. This may seem miniscule for the rest of you but it's awesome for me. At my Physical therapist, I am spinning 3 miles in 15 minutes and feeling strong, twice a week. Need to build my inner knee muscles my doc says but she is proud of my progress towards health!!

Yeah for biking and for exercise and living healthy!!!! Love you all!!
