Well were do I start?!
This whole week has just been terrible! For no reason at all my BS have been SUPER high, therefore I feel sick to my stomach! Yesterday morning my BS was 371, then @ lunch it was 121, then after dinner it was 450!!!! What is going on?! I am taking my insulin correctly, but I just don't know. I really think that maybe the insulin I have been carrying around w/ me has gone bad. Since I have been low carbin it I haven't used as much insulin, therefore I have been carrying around the same (unrefrigerated) insulin pen w/ me for almost a month. Oh I forgot that this morning I was 371. So this morning I decided to switch out insulin pens and see how that helps. I swear i just feel so exhausted and sick in my stomach! I don't know how people could ever just not take their insulin on purpose. I started thinking about these girls I saw on Dr. Phil last month that didn't take their insulin so that they would lose weight...I think it was called diabulima...there is no way that I could not take my insulin purposefully! I would die!!! Well besides seriously being close to death, I would die from just feeling this way all of the time. The constant water drinking, and running to the restroom is enough to just put me in a bad mood. I hope that by switching my insulin I will start to feel better. I have been feeling better, but now I am feeling like crap again. It is almost lunch time, so I will get to go home and check my BS. I truly think that if it hasn't gone down yet then maybe I should call the Dr. I dunno. They will just waste my time, so I prolly won't. I must say though last night was the scariest that I have ever been from a high. I seriously thought that I was going to die in my sleep. I have never had a bad episode from where I had a seizure or went into a coma, but I seriously thought that if it was going ot happen that last night would have been it. I checked my BS again b4 bed (about 20 mins after injecting some insulin) and I had only went down about 20 points, so I decided to take some more insulin and risk the chance of going low. At least then I could treat it quickly and be on about my night.
Well enough about my crappy week! I hope I have finally fixed the problem, but I still seem to having that dry mouth feeling that no amount of water can satisfy.

Well this blog is going to be started out of boredom, and as a way for others to see what I actually go through throughout my days.
Well lets start out w/ one of the worse days of my life...last Friday! It was one of those mornings, were I didn't like what I was wearing so a minute b4 leaving out the door I decided to change my entire outfit. Once I arrived @ work....after dealing with an upper management official being on my ass all of the way to work...I was greeted at my office by a girl that I can't stand to show me her sonogram pictures. I don't care about sonogram pictures as is, let alone when I don't like you, but I put on a happy face and Ohhh'd and Awww'd over the pictures, and quickly pushed her out the door. After about an hour my manager went around passing out our monthly checks...yes I only get paid once a month, and guess what? Yup, he didn't have a check for me. Since I was on disability in December and the beginning of Jan the checks had gotten messed up, and some how mine was omitted from the system....well enough said I won't get paid until Monday! Luckily enough I can wait. That basically was all that happened, but it just made for a bad day that continued all day. After writing about it, it sure doesn't seem that bad, but I just wasn't in my normal happy Friday mood. Other then that Friday went pretty well. I don't think we did anything too exciting that night...I know we are old and boring.
Saturday was a great day mentally, but a bad day for the diet. *For those who don't know I am on a Low Carb diet to try and lose weight. I have been living this way for 4 weeks w/o problem, but yesterday while out shopping I lost it. I didn't really lose it, but I was like "1 meal won't hurt anything"....so we went for Mexican. I didn't feel bad b/c I understand that I am going to stumble a little, and then I just deal w/ it. Well then last night I had a couple glasses of wine and some Chinese. I was still not upset about my diet, however my body was not ready for those carbs. Even though I took the appropriate amt of insulin I was still up all night (well every 2 hours) to go pee and drink a bottle of water. Even after checking my BS twice and taking more insulin it still didn't go down. Now this morning I feel like crap, and need a nap, but it made me realize that living low carb is for me. While doing low carb and high protein my BS is great! I have had a problems w/ going low, but I have corrected the problem and understand how to stay above it.
Well I have just realized how boring this blog is going to be, but hey it is really just for me to read, and who ever else is reading this can feel free to quit reading at any time, or you can feel free to question me on anything.
