Couch 26

you sound like my NP telling me what i am heading for if i keep on the path of destruction i am on . she said some may die quickly or go into a coma but most will live miserably as there body shuts down and that mixed with my SI the risk of infection and healing is huge .and talked about loosing limbs and junk like that.i think she was trying to scare me . she said also she cant make me take my meds and will not judge me if i choose not to and will treat me in any case but that i cant judje her for wanting to tell me the facts. but i still think she was trying to scare me into taking meds and not SIing

Did it work?

We need our Granite around....

Granite, there's truth to what she says. Diabetics heal a lot more difficultly healing than non, and are at risk for gangrene infections etc a lot more. Especially in the limbs. Less blood flow and all that. I could go into real depth detail about why, but I don't think anyone would appreciate that so I'll cut it short. Still, if your sugars are at 300-600 you really gotta be careful. That's super high, even for fasting.

Unrelated note, I think the bf made up for pissing me off last night. He woke up, got me my meds, AND made breakfast this morning. Score! lol

ya kind of yup

Sorry it scared you , but sometimes it takes a jolt to get us thinking clearly again. One more thing for Stopdog to keep tabs on...

I hope you take care of yourself Granite. Those are scary numbers. Was your vision affected?

So blahh today. I have this cold that just won't go away! It's been over a week and I am still suffering. Ugh. Oh well. At work and that is so so depressing. Can't wait to go home and hide from the world again.... which is not a good choice either I suppose.

accually yes it is my eyes are crap but i hope it will get better

Murray your boss called and told me you could go home.... Sick day!

I relate more to Nanny McPhee. lol.

They are fine and napping. Got em home, got em fed, got em in bed.

Sounds to me like I need a Nanny.... uggg

One is awake. I hear her up there singing to her stuffed animals.lol

The reason I asked was that my mom found out that she was diabetic because her eyesight suddenly got so horrible. Once she got her sugar straightened out her eyesight went back to normal.

Granite don't make me chzange yor name to "other eyed crone"!

Is anyone out there, I am about to fall asleep. Help , I need to make it to the end....

Wake up Lola ! Wake Up!!!!!

My yawns are yawning....

WAKE UP, LOLA!

Granite, I'm glad your appointment went well. It sounds like you have an awesome physician. If everything she talked about feels overwhelming and impossible, maybe you can take one of the things and just work on that, while not making anything else worse?

I would very much like to have a nanny. And naps. Naps are good. Too bad I didn't know that when I was 5.

I feel stuck in therapy right now. We seem to be talking about the same things over and over. Intellectually, I know everything he's telling me is right, but I have trouble getting the child inside to agree. T doesn't seem to mind repeating himself ad nauseum, but I'm tired of it.

Waik up lola
:d:d:d

Home. Time to make cookies for a cookie swap party tonight..

just got a call saying that my couches will be delivered tomorrow between 12 and 3.i cant wait .i think i am going to have to have one of them brought in through my big window because it wont fit through my door. my hubby and farther are going to have to do this.will be interesting seeing it is on the second story of my house

New furniture Yipppeeee!!!! So happy for you.

I love new stuff.... yeah, if they do bring the couch through the window on the second floor ( did I read that correctly???) take pics

Arg. Busy. Tomorrow I have 3 meetings. Gah. Here we go again...nothing like being a QP.

Every time I see QP I read it first as QC (Queen's Counsel) - too much Rumpole of the Bailey.

So how long does a cold reasonably last???? I'm on day 10 I think and no end in sight. Ugh
