Yes, it is

a hernia. At least that's what my internal medicine doc told me. Nothing like a little "turn your head and cough" to make an afternoon complete. I know that women have it bad when they go to the woman doctor, but having your boys jiggled by another dude is just not one of life's best events. Anyway, they did a physical on me at the same time. My blood pressure was up (duh! - I have not been to the gym regularly in over a year). So, he put me on some blood pressure meds - which basically mean that I get to go pee a lot. On the other hand, my blood work came back normal - whew - no blood sugar issues.
So, what to do now. I have an appointment with the surgeon next Tuesday to see how and when to get this hernia thingy taken care of. In the mean time, I really need to start eating right. I need to find new morning food besides breakfast burritos and diet coke ( and throw in a donut for good measure). I want to exercise, but what I can and can't do will be dictated by the doc next week.
