I forgot to mention



I went for a full medical a couple of weeks ago. Everything checked out fine. All the results showed normal readings excpet for homocysteine which came in at 16.2 (should be between 7 and 12 or lower).According to a medcial website, Homocysteine (ho"mo-sis-TE'in) is an amino acid in the blood. Too much of it is related to a higher risk of coronary heart disease, stroke and peripheral (peh-RIF'er-al) vascular disease (fatty deposits in peripheral arteries). By all accounts, a regular intake of B6 and B12 should lower this.

Overall my general health was described as "excellent" but I've been advised to take more exercise (no? really?)

On the downside, a pigmented naevus (mole to you and me) reared its ugly head. I've now had that removed and I am sporting a nice wound with 3 stitches. I should get the results within 2 weeks. Fingers crossed.
