Many hugs and this may mean nothing to you but like I said before you are my role model to keep fighting. As you know I am in a hurricane too of issues. One day at a time and I am always here for you. On the note of the fasting test it may not be a good idea or may because I don't know if it would throw the test off but could you start making some of the changes now incase you are diabetic or heading there? Melody who has made major changes I am sure could offer some ideas. It may help with your bloodwork,pain,energy,and weight. Just a thought.
