Pre Op Discoveries

Jun 18, 2008

So all my pre-op tests have revealed even more problems with my health that I wasnt even aware of.  

They discovered the following:

1.  High cholesterol - over 233
2.  Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis - Fatty Liver
3.  Mitral Regurgitation (Health Murmer)

The heart murmer was the most surprising for me since it had never been diagnosed.  One of the reasons it may not have been discovered before (you have to hear it) is because I have so much "padding" on my chest.  My Dr. told me once I lose weight, most drs will be able to hear it.  I have been reading up on it and my understanding is that I wont have to worry about it until I am older and may eventually need a valve replacement. 

OK so reinforcement that what I am doing is the RIGHT thing!
