I still don't know what bag she was asking about.

I’m not sure how much any of you know about Diabetes or that it reared its ugly head back when I turned 13, but the following telling of what happened to me last night will shed light on to just how fucked up this disease is. It has one twisted sense of humor at times.

This is pretty long...you have been warned )

My sugar level had gotten so low that I was hallucinating about poisoned girl scout cookies; I wasn't thinking too clear at the moment.

Glucose tablets do the job with normal low sugars, but mine was below 30 at that point...I would have had to down a fist full to make a dent.

Natural sugars are better, actually. Candy and soda will raise your sugar level really fast, then it will drop again. Natural sugars will bring you up at a more even pace. You have to do what you have to do on the road, but if at all possible some OJ or jelly or something like that is a better bet. They also make the glucose stuff in tube form, which is good if the subject is beyond being able to chew and swallow.

You can take two of those glucose in a tube and stick them in your ass; they taste like they were made in one anyway.
