Thursday Update Plus Full Lab Report for 2007-01-24

It is Thursday morning, and I would like to report that I had a much better night's sleep last night. I do not know if it was the extra exercise, or the prayers, or what exactly helped me, but I was able to get a good night's sleep. I went to sleep around 10:00 and got up around 7:00, so that was good. I am glad that something (at least) is helping. Maybe I will not need to change medications after all. We shall see.

Thank you all for the prayers. I was able to sleep, and I am feeling well today. I guess it will be more exercise and more TV watching today (as Jenny and I clean off our DVR). Thank you all for your prayers, and please continue to keep me in your prayers this week. Our next clinic appointment is on Monday.
