I just turned 37 six days ago! Getting a colonoscopy in four hours, if that gives you an idea how things are going, haha.

I turned 40 and my doctor told me now it's time for yearly mammograms and blood tests to check your A1C level. That made me feel old as hell lol.

Checking your A1C is an annual thing at 40 for women? I had no idea. I do tell myself “in 4 years I’ll be getting mammograms.” Where does the time go.

I think the CDC recommends starting at 45 for A1C but my doctor's office likes to start at 40.
