As I walk on treadmill or outside the pain goes away. Right now my pain is almost gone and is like 1/10 or even less. But I noticed that last week, when I tried to sit on a stationary bicycle to ride a bit, I had extreme pain from back and sternum. It lasted about 30/45 minutes and I felt it was crushing me. Then I walked around and all was well. This makes me think I have some kind of slipped disk or two on my spine that is causing these pains.I also cancelled my SCROTUM Ultrasound which the doctor wanted. My scrotum looks good and I have no pains or problems with sex or any other kind. No absolute problems with bowel movements – I have regular daily bowel movements and everything is clean. And BTW I gave blood for work as a part f physical and will know results soon.
What am I expecting – elevated blood sugar (bloody hell, I avoided diabetes so far but I guess finally the genes are catching up. last time it was 107 and around but only since last year it was over 100. Then may be PSA can show something. I also feel there could be a small kidney stone but I have nothing to show in the urine or pain during urination. So I am not sure. Blood pressure has been running high since last year too. into 140/90 and now I am on 10 mg tablet. Not sure if that is working or not but I am using it since a week LOL. The biggest problem is that, every time I check BP it is 140/90 and the next reading when I redo in the next minute is 130/80. I stopped believing all these machines at home, in store and all. How on earth are they selling these machines that cannot show a consistent reading in two minutes time frame?
For now I also found a couple of hernia surgeons from my office colleagues and will keep them on hand. Will update sometime next week when blood results kick in. Thanks all.
