Man did this weekend fly by or what! I don’t think that I got a single thing accomplished at all. Friday started out with some high blood sugars during the day and some stress. That’s why there was no Fired Up Friday last week. I test drove a Ford Edge on Thursday night and fell [...]

Yesterday I had to refill my insulin cartridge at work and it made me think about a couple of things. First, what reaction am I going to get from people who walk by? Why do I have two vials of insulin in my laptop bag and both have 2 refills left in them? Why is [...] If you follow The Life of a Diabetic on Twitter, then this post is not going to sound like much of a surprise to most of you. My blood sugars have been crazy over the past 2 months, even 3. I haven’t seen my endocrinologist since October, which I was seeing her every month for [...] First, I want to thank you all for your feedback, RT’s, and comments from the Fired Up Friday post about drink options.

I met a guy up there who said that he has gone to 42 straight, this year’s was the 52nd so he only missed the first 10 races. That sounded like a great [...] You know how there are all these studies out there and all these dumb little facts? Well I have one for somebody to figure out. The average amount of time in a lifetime that a diabetic waits on hold with an insurance company. I’m guessing I can save pretty much half of my life this [...] 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 [...] |
