So, this weekend I had a bridal shower followed by a bachelorette party. I was so anxious I woke up at 5:30 on Saturday. Naturally I didnt last very long saturday night :(
I slept most of Sunday away and then got up this morning. When my blood sugar is out of control one of the first things that happens is my left palm swells and gets itchy. That was happening so I checked my blood sugar and it was 130 (which isnt unreasonable)
Then I was telling Brian how hot I was and that I felt a little dizzy while we were going downstairs and he said I sat down on the couch and just started mumbling incoherently and was pouring sweat.
I'm lucky he was so quick to act and knew what to do. He checked my blood sugar and it was 22 which Ive never had it that low before. He gave me spoonfuls of honey and then chocolate milk and then a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and I basically came to.
I stayed at home and slept until 9:30 then went into work but all I wanted to do was go to sleep so I left at noon.
I just called a couple free health care clinics in the area because I need to see some kind of doctor since I havent since I lost my insurance a year ago. The one I called said I could come tonight and I should take that as a sign to go, but I really dont want to.
