Liver enzymes
So my blood work is a bit out of wack
I have not been the most health conscience person with my eating up until now. I got way better since I was diagnosed Type II diabetic August of 2021. For the last few blood works, my white blood cells and red blood cells have been a little elevated. It’s as if I have an infection. I don’t feel sick. I really don’t think I have any infections. Anyway, since I am on Medicaid, I make sure to visit my doctor every three months. I go like clockwork for blood work. I pretty much can have as many labs as I want and not pay. So, I make sure I get the full panel of blood works every three months. This last blood work had my liver enzymes slightly high. This prompted my one doctor to order an ultrasound of my liver. So I am a bit worried since the liver is a major organ. I had a past co-worker and friend die of a liver tumor. So I do pay attention to what my liver is doing. My tumor marker on this last blood work came back normal. So that is good
I am getting older
I am getting older and I understand human beings are not built to last. Things that normally worked ok, start to not work. Eyesight, libido, blood sugar regulation. My eyesight at 52 is still pretty damn good. I had readers prescribed to me, but I don’t really need them to see my cell phone. I need them if I buy something small from China etc… parts for my computer or what have you that have really small print. Otherwise I don’t need the glasses. But I understand that I could lose more functions down the road. I suppose I have to mentally prepare myself.
Current frustration
I suppose I am tuned in on my much time I think I have on Earth. So this is why I am currently frustrated. I am pretty much stuck at the parents house in this boring town. Waiting on my Social Security Disability. I am diagnosed with Bi-Polar 1 with psychosis. I have my episodes. Manic episodes, panic attacks sleeplessness and deep and dark depression. I am under the care of psych professionals that are ok. I used to love taking two and a half week road trips out to the American Southwest and California and document my travels with dash cam video and still photography. I have not taken any new photos or produced any new content in 5 years. I have a deep need to create things. Images. I feel that my time is running out. I am 52 years old, my liver enzymes are high and I have Type II diabetes. Hopefully I will get out of this slump and creating new images one day.
