I have to head off into town, today, to have a diabetes checkup.

-=-=-

Seems the Doc's are worried that I might be on the verge of Diabetes.
As with most issues that have come along in the past 6 or 7 years, I can pretty much put this one down to lack of exercise.

Diabetes, being Overweight, high Cholesterol, it's all pretty much the same issue. I'm lacking in exercise due to not being able to find an exercise regime that doesn't involve repetitive head motion, and it's now starting to mess up my health.

Bah, humbug.

So, off to the Docs for tests, knowing fully well what the outcome will be. It is, in all honesty, a complete waste of time.. Because we all know what's going to happen.
And what's going to happen is that the Doc will see the results, freak out about it, and have me regularly popping down for more and more tests, which I struggle enough with every time it happens.

The whole morning's wasted with me building up enough energy to make the trip.
I can't eat in the morning, for fear of bringing it all up due to all the motion involved in getting to the Docs.
The time of the appointment is usually them saying "You should exercise more", and me saying "Yes, I bloody well know that, but you've yet to suggest anything to me that might actually help in that situation", and them saying "Well.. You should!!!" because they don't know what else to say.
And then the rest of the day's me trying to recover from the whole day's frustration, and not actually managing to do anything..

.. So, that's pretty much what's going to happen, today, and most likely repeatedly over the next month or two.

*sigh*
