The Hypoglycemia Blues...
60. That was my last blood glucose reading. I couldn't get to sleep. I had that sort of hot-cold-shaky feeling that heralds low blood sugar, and it appears I was correct. [Insert multiple swear words here.]
Ah well...I have dried fruit and nuts, both of which are good remedies for low blood sugar. It was low earlier today, too - 73. Funny, I had a very large fruit smoothie a couple of hours earlier, as well as a large bowl of chicken-noodle soup. The 73 reading came after getting That Feeling and hitting a Wendy's for a small Frosty. Supper was jambalaya with hot links, ham, chicken and shrimp. We watched more of Enterprise and snacked on buttered popcorn. In addition, I had some raisins and dried guava paste. I feel as though I've been eating like mad, and yet...
A few more raisins, and back to bed!

P.S. Please, if you would, say a prayer for a friend. Her mother is dying. Thanks...
