Ok, for ones who care:

Just wanted to write and say thanks for your concerns. I'm doing fine now. That hyper spell burned off around 1am and I was up 4x going to the bathroom from the amount of water I drank.

In reviewing my diet that day, I think the reason for the huge spike in BGs and the hypers is the day. Although I always eat low glycimic, and low carb. (like a bowl of chilli [low Gly] and a bowl of fresh spiced kale (4g carbs) that went though me very slowly, so it kept adding to my carb count, instead of a spike if I'd eaten say a krispy kreme donut (drool....)

It was one of those special days; we went out on a day on the town, ate out 3x and such. I also risked a local ice-cream shop. They had 'sugar free ice cream' and I only had 1 scoop in a cup (isntead of on a cone) apprently I'll have to take THAT off my list now.

That would explain some of those times when before I was Rxed, and got my Bgs under tight control, when I got the hypers. I've said many times to one friend that I thought I was bipolar judging by those hyper attacks. No idea what I ate then, but the timing now is too coincidental. So I learned something new, and won't eat like that anymore.

But yes, it also screwed up my emotional control no end either.

On the other thing. a few of you saw the post before I sanitized it. So know it's now healing. I had a dream this morn, of all things in which it started healing. What's weird is, I woke, and looked and yes it was now healing! After a good hot shower, and a chest painted with iodine to ward off secondary infections, it's getting better finally. There's a faint possibity it won't be so bad when I speak to my doctor, and he may put me on strong antibiotics instead of having it removed. If so, I can live with it, until next year when I should have enough money to at least put a down-payment on the sugary. That's my fondest hopes. Of course, it could go the complete 180 and I'll be broke again. I'm optimistic, as always though.

I'll be returning home, Sunday, and it'll take a day to get caught up to the mail :). This has been a good vacation, disipte the medical problems.

Oh forgot to say; I'm updating my profile. It'll list all my e-addresses on the interweb now. Thanks to Roustabout for the idea.

vacation, medical
