I contacted my endocrinologist today because I need a new prescription for my pump supplies before I see her later this morning. I was hoping that I could just wait until I saw her on March 25 to get a prescription from her, but there is no way that I am going to have enough [...]

Last night I started to think about some things, usually not good when I do this kind of stuff. Diabetes makes me think a lot. Let me exaplain the background of the story first and why it came about. Over the last, I’d say 2-3 weeks I have fell in love with this new bbq [...] Today I have decided to wear my sensor for the first time in almost two months. I had it charging all night long because it wasn’t even connected to the charger during that 2 months. I am not even sure if the sensors are still good because I know that they have short expiration date. [...] In a post I did earlier in the week, I explained that I was working a lot and not really sleeping at all. Well, along with that I have been working right through exercise time as well. My exercise has consisted of throwing footballs and doing a little jogging at football practice when I am [...] MMM….Insulin. That’s what I said to myself today around 10:00 a.m. when a co-worker came up to my desk and said, there’s a package downstairs for you. I was starting to get extremely nervous because about 20 minutes before that, my pump beeped and said “Low Reservoir” and I was completely out of insulin. I [...] Doctors and deductibles. Both have things in common, but also a lot of differences as well. You don’t want to have a high deductible, just as much as you don’t want to have a high doctor. Your happy when you meet your deductible, hopefully you are happy after you meet your doctor. But then comes [...] First weekend with the new basal rates and carb to insulin ratio, not bad. I didn’t see much of a difference, but the after meal highs have come down a little. There were still highs, but they were about 170-180 insteado f the 230-240 I was having. It could have also been the food that [...] Today’s post, although later is about the results from my endo appointment today. I just came home from football practice a little bit ago, so that is why it is such a late post tonight. But anywho, onto the appointment. A diabetic’s mandatory meeting. I was actually on time so that started out well. I handed [...] I received a phone call today from my endo’s office to confirm my appointment for Friday and I was confused. I said, there’s no way that I could have scheduled an appointment for that day because Friday is Charlie Kimball’s race down in Homestead – Miami that I am going to so I can’t have [...] |
