Legislative Health Fair

I ran down to participate in the legislative health fair in the Capitol rotunda after Joint Budget this morning. The health fair is being sponsored by the Arkansas Pharmacists Association, the Arkansas Hospital Association, and the Arkansas Medical Society and is free and open to the public. It's going on until 11:30, so if you're in central Arkansas, come on down.

Here I am being stuck by Megan Wilson, a Pharmacy student at UAMS. I broke the rules and forgot to fast this morning, which apparently skewed some of my numbers with my Kashi cereal, but I fared okay. Blood pressure was 120/76, my blood glucose was a little high (117), and my cholesterol was in range. They're also giving prostate screenings, and guys, they're simply taking a little blood -- get it done!
