Talk about whatever, respecting the rules established by Lemmygrad. Failing to comply with the rules will grant you a few warnings, insisting on breaking them will grant you a beautiful shiny banwall.

They apparently caught it early.

I hope I will be fine. I hope I will be okay.

I may go vegan soon.

I'm trying to watch my diet and exercise more now.

I could use all the advice in the world now.

Good news: caught it early!

Best tips going forward: lifestyle changes. Manage obesity, control blood sugar, control hypertension; keep diet low in fats and high in fiber, low glycemic index foods, and protein. Plant based protein (๐Ÿซ˜๐Ÿซ˜๐Ÿซ˜) is gold standard imo. Exercise 5-6 times a week.

Major tip: keep up with your regular PCP visits to monitor progress! You'll want to take your medications as prescribed; none of that "I only take the blood pressure pill when I feel I need it" nonsense!

Take some OTC vitamin E supplements, avoid alcohol, and make sure you're up to date on your vaccinations.

You got this

Low glycemic index foods, eh? Will look into this.

Plant-based protein, alright.

Also, yeah, good idea about the medication.

Vitamin E helps? Alright.

Thank you!
