Diabetic CRAP
SO if you don't know i am a diabetic. I have been a diabetic for about 4 years now.
Last night scared the crap out of me. So a normal blood sugar for a diabetic as active as me is about 140 to 200 (just keep that in mind)
So last night before i went to bed my blood sugar dropped to 50 so i needed to bring it up by taking in sugar orally. So i got a cup of juice and some cookies and that should have brought my blood sugars up. So i decided i was feeling ok i could go to sleep. So i fall asleep for about an hour and i am jolted awake and my heart is beating so fast i knew something was wrong. So i grab my diabetic test kit and come to find out my blood sugar was 26!!!!! If your levels fall to around 22 you can start to have convulsions. I almost could not walk i was so weak i get to my kitchen and start eating everything in sight. It took about 15 mins after i ate i just sat at the edge of my bed and started to cry!
its amazing how little moments like this can remind you have life can be so fragile.
i have been a wreck all day !
