Boring diabetes update
For quite awhile my diabetes has been crap, i had been unable to get the levels normalised.
So i have been working really hard at getting it all controlled again, my biggest problem has been mornings. For the last month my levels have been perfect, i have lost 11kgs, gotten rid of alot things which were depressing me and I am feeling %100 better than i have in a long time.
I know this hasn't fixed the diabetes thing and i need to watch it carefully still but perfect levels for almost a month is exciting for me even if bores the hell outta everyone else :)
I think i under estimated the effects of stress were having me and my levels but it turns out the differences are huge. I still need to quit smoking and without the stress I was having that should be easier i just need to pick a date.
I am happier and healthier than i have been in a long time and relieved not to be looking at medicating, I am dreading having to do that. I do have a Dr appt Tuesday to get it all checked again and hoping it will all go well.
Its kinda weird that so much of my life is spent taking diabetes into consideration but its invisible to everyone else, at work there are 3 of us with invisible conditions who spend alot of time caring them and having those people there comparing the things we miss or can't do and general frustrations to whinge about is like its own little support group. Its great !!
