Guess who's back.....hehehe

I am so glad to have the internet back again!!! I missed all of my Diabetic Buddies! You know what...It was worth the wait! If you are in a area that offers Verizon Fios you should get it! it is super fast. The move was great! I was thinking about starting my own moving company (lol) because my bg's were great! 80-100 fasting and 90-130 2 hrs after eating...I love it!!! hehehehe. It's good to be back home! I will be seeing you all around!! Cherise

Convo w/ a perfect stranger....

I was talking on the phone to this young lady at BC (verifying benefits). For some strange reason I blurted it out I have to eat lunch. The young lady on the other end said you need to eat before your blood sugar is low...lol I said I know I am a diabetic and I have to watch out for low BG's. She said she was sorry she didn't mean to offend me. I let her know she didn't and I wasn't ashamed of my diabetes. She said she thinks she may have diabetes but her Dr won't test her for it. She also said… Continue

Feeling a little LOW????

I am not sure what's going on for the past week I have been getting the shakes, like I am low. I check my BG's and I it's at 89. I have never felt low at 89 before until now. I always felt low at anything below 70 not 89. I am not sure what's going on and I don't have an Endo appointment until next month...If anyone reads this please let me know what this could be or if I should worry... Thank you Cherise

Hi Cerise,

I just happened on your page and enjoyed your commentaries.

I sympathize with your frustration in "educating" clueless co-workers. It's frustrating how much misunderstanding there is out there about Type 1 diabetes, let alone LADA.

Love the music tracks!
