surprising results
So pretty much right after I posted last night I had an accident at my parents'. Very embarrassing. I pretty much made it to the bathroom, but... blech. So, I went home and I went a couple times through the night but not as bad. Nothing watery. I also popped some imodium and started my iron tabs again (they make me constipated sometimes).
The Royals...Jesus...
I couldn't even watch the whole thing. Watched Z Nation and DooL before reading about half of World War Z and going to bed. I was up a couple times but okay.
Anyway, today's happy (because KU is so not going to win today) is that I had my regular diabetes appointment this morning. I figured that, due to my lack of eating much and food going right through me, my iron count would have tanked and due to the steroids my blood sugar would be up.
But, nope! My iron went from 8.7 to 9.9 (normal is 11.7 so still low but much better) and really I've eaten nothing with iron in it for ten days probably, and my A1C went down from 6.8 to 6.4 which is just on the high edge of "increased risk for diabetes". My feet weren't swollen like last time either. Doctor was pleased. So no iron infusions or extra appointments. :)
Pulse is still really high--139! But on the other hand my BP was 100/60. Yeah, stupid body.
Then I ran a few errands and am now watching football, debating over whether or not to even give the Royals a shot at noon. I need to get up and take my horrible pills (the nasty tasty ones) now that I've eaten. I'm a bit tired so may just doze off in this chair.
Elektra is staring wide eyed at the front door... No clue why.
