Oh em gee!

My H's blood sugar is 335 AFTER his insulin! He hasn't eaten much today. We may be heading to the ER (per doctors orders) if we can't get it lower. Even better we're in TN.

This will explain his grumpiness today.

holy crap! Hope his number drops

[themysteriouswife]

Down to 280! Gah, I hate diabetes! Poor guy is sleepy and pissy and I have to wake him.

[bugandbibs]

Holy crap! I hope he feels better soon. Are his numbers normally so unstable?

[themysteriouswife]

Until over a year ago, yes. That's when we moved and got new doctors. His new endocrinologist found a cocktail of things that work. He is Type I. (Some call it 1.5) he wasn't diagnosed until his 20's. That is the highest it has been in a really really long time. We think it was Friday's unhealthy eating. We had fast food for lunch and dinner. For breakfast he had breakfast provided at work. Typically meetings provide sweets and not much he can choose from.

[themysteriouswife]

220 before breakfast! Who knew I would get excited over a high number!?

[Kristinmo]

Holy crap. Does he use a pump? My sister is type 1 and her pump literally changed her life.

[gogadgetgo]

I hope his numbers continue to go down and he feels better soon!

[themysteriouswife]

He is a super ass today. His grandma called him a prick. Lol his numbers are under 200, but still high.

Kristinmo not yet. He might be headed that way.

[gogadgetgo]

It's bad when grandma calls you out.

[themysteriouswife]

Not really. She calls everyone out. Her potty mouth makes my mouth look clean. his grandma is my favorite person ever.

ETA: oh and she has called him a p*ssy in the past. I felt kind of bad for him today. He apologized after he came around. He can't control his grumpiness when his levels are wonky. He is feeling better and driving home. 166 was his last check. That was 45 min after eating. That is a good reading, considering.

I'm glad his numbers are down and he is in a better mood.

[bugandbibs]

Pumps are amazing. It made all the difference for my SMIL.

I'm glad his numbers are down, and that he's feeling better. Chronic high numbers can really take a toll of your body.

[Kristinmo]

I know the idea of a pump is scary but it seriously changed my sister's life. The continous dose of insulin with a bolus for meals is so much more like how a healthy pancreas actually functions. Plus, fewer needles!
