Don't know for sure. I go back to the doc in a month. In the meantime I have some heavier meds for blood pressure and cholesterol which is probably the best thing for now.

(Yeah, lose weight, get more exercise, etc. No surprise there.)

Incidentally, I just took Sadie for a walk, and I'm noticing that I feel better (more energy, less swelling, etc.), so maybe it's the right thing.
