Fasting 89 and Loving it!!!

Wow! I am so happy to see my fasting Bg's back to normal! let me be the first to tell you, I was going to change my basal setting's w/o thinking about Aunt Dottie disturbing my life as always...lol I am glad I received alot of feed back from Kristin, Karen, Deb, Cathy and Dino (lol). They caused me to stop and think before I react to something that is totally normal. I know now that during Aunt Dottie's vist I don't need to stress, everything will be ok and it's normal to see crazy BG's. My fasting is back to normal and I am loving it...

Your Diabetic Buddy,
Cherise

Comment by Kristin on June 5, 2008 at 1:34pm: Oh and I'm jealous of your awesome control! :) My fasting BGs have been in the 50's lately no matter what I do. I lowered my basal without overnight basal test cause I'm traveling and alone AND I still woke up in the 50's.

Comment by Karen Vecchitto on June 5, 2008 at 2:48pm: Way to go Cherise! Your Aunt makes you high, my Aunt makes me low! I guess it just goes to show you that we're all different even thought we've got the same rotten condition.

Keep smilin'

Comment by Cathy on June 5, 2008 at 8:40pm: Oh cherise I am so glad you are back to normal so to speak . Poor dino i think we embarassed him a little yesterday . Yeah those aunt dotties can be such a pain in more ways than one lol . some days i pray so hard to never see another aunt dottie as long as I live . You just got to remember not to over analyze anything and try not to think about bs too much and get on with this thing we call life . glad to see you are better .

Cathy- I have a bad habit of over thinking things. We did embarasse Dino!
Kristin, your bg's are low...wow! Are you in the states are oversea's traveling??? have you tried eating a snack before bed?
Karen- Your right...we are all different...same disease, different strokes for different diabetic's.

Comment by debb on June 5, 2008 at 11:24pm: i can honestly say that when i had my hysto and parted forever with aunt dottie i never looked back. my doctor asked me when i went in for my check-up a month after the surgery if i thought i would need help adjusting to everything. i looked at him kind of stunned. i said let me see. no pain, no bloating. no wearing a cot sized mattress for 5 days, no bleeding. where in that am i suppose to be having a problem? he just looked at me and said with a smile, i guess you won't be needing to see a specialist to talk about it then. i so wanted to say DUH!!!! i guess some women do have problems dealing with that kind of thing, but i was 40, i had all the kids i wanted (2) and i didn't feel any less of a woman without the plumbing. in fact i felt a bit liberated. all this was a few years before i was diagnosed with diabetes. i'm very glad i don't have to deal with all the regular stuff and deal with diabetes too. you have my heartfelt sympathy ladies.
dino gets kudo's from me. he didn't have to say anything, we would never have known he had read this blog. to know he is enough man to be at ease and throw in a joke at his own expense was super cool. i don't know many men like that. 5 stars for dino.
