Got that, done it much if my life. -

Got an eye exam, ordered glasses. Total bill was like $ 1100. I paid about 250. Insurance covered far more than I expected. So 10 to 14 days and I hope to see better.

Indeed!

Like it or not each of us for the most part are on our own. Our health journey is self directed. No government, no doctor, no anything. I personally sort through you tube and Google. Sorting out what I need the best I can. My objectives in the first quarter of 2026 are: 1. Continue to eat as low carb as possible. 2. Increase my exercise level. 3. Test my C-peptide and enzyme level to. see where my T2DM is at. 4. Somehow trim 1 pound a week off. 5. Continue to improve my metabolic health. Not sure exactly here. I am not in a bad place, just need to be more optimal.

I can not verify this, but I am suspicious in how the algorithm handles the data in deciding wgat data to ignore

Abbott laboratories make the Libre 2 and 3 CGM's. The recorded the blood glucose level every 5 minutes. On September 30th they were discontinued, replaced by the 2 Plus and 3 Plus. These newer models record the blood glucose level every 60 seconds. The reading is sent via blue tooth to my phone app. Sometimes my display graph of my blood Glucose Level looks like a zig zag sewing machine stitch. The app 'smooths' out the graph. But it makes me wonder a bit.

Ty for posting this. I watched some of it. It not making a lot of sense. But again ty

Looks to me like a real profit center. PCSK9 drugs are considered to be a boozooka in the battle against heart disease. In discussions I have looked at Statins are a pea shooter by comparison. In my opinion the studies are as convoluted as any statin study. I am somewhat surprised the side effects are similar to that of statins. This class of drugs are injections. My PCP has already dropped hints this is for me. It seems to be more about we must fear LDL. When I get this recommended it will just be no. I am, thank God, allergic to statins. I figure be similar for this. Eric westman has a video coming on December 3 covering this. Seems to be a good video. Not me says Paul.

It is satisfying, keeps me out of carbs trouble

Ty for reply. Yeah old data not mean much. But my new data is somehow accessing the old for some reports. Any how is fine. I know I eating extremely low carb. Eventually Abbott will improve the CGM consistency. It is just a guide right now

The only TV I ever see is NFL games. On Thanksgiving Day it was football and some advertisement for a Cholesterol Drug. A 'Heart' was crying out to its owner how they needed to do more. And of course it stated how the studies showed spectacular results. Two things, the side effects where HUGE. Scared me to say no. And most l likely if u took this medication you would live 3 more days. The Cholesterol narrative is so alive and well. Currently 25% of patients say no to Statins. I thankfully am allergic to statins. I think. But not sure, this ad was foe an injection.

Best BGL Thanksgiving ever. Glad I made it. I ate like 15 or 20 carbs. Now back to ZERO Carbs. I was alone so no pressure. Christmas will be a bigger challenge. I will be prepared, armed and ready. Getting new glasses in December, looking forward to that. U all be well
