Here’s to your health

by

It’s about to be really busy in the Comer/Brown household. I know that when things get rockin, I have a tendency to not take the best care of myself. It’s a tragic flaw.
doctor.jpgSo I decided to take the reigns and make a doctor’s appointment. Make sure all my allergy meds are up and running. Ask about my little pains and aches. I thought it was a good way to get a tune up before I become a full time poppa again. I think every dad to be should do this a few months from birth.
Well, my Body Mass Index is 25.3%, which is 5% over the high end of optimal(I’m chubby). My cholesterol is 236…200 is high end, and my triglycerides (?) are over 300…100 is high(Too many sausage biscuits). And my thyroid is alittle over active.(I have no idea)
I’m glad I went…I have some ways to make myself healthier. It’s Sarah, Jack, and Tony that I went for…but it’s me who now has to do something to get my health on the right track. Tonight I begin by sleeping with an apnea tester up my nose and a pulse ox on my finger…to make sure my snoring isn’t something more…
I will be sleepy tomorrow.

About Sympathy Pain

The "Sympathy Pain" blog is a father's view of what is generally viewed as "woman only" territory, pregnancy. The blog also looks into the blended family and how a new addition affects that family. "Sympathy Pain" is not a battle of the sexes sight, but rather, an open forum for moms and dads.
