I have been so worked up lately about my blood sugars spiking sometimes, that I had myself convinced today that I may have had a 13 plus A1C.
That would be impossible (at the way I am working at it), but I have been so hard on myself for so long that I went there. It took me a result of 7.0 to breathe again. I am talking crying/hyperventilating, some great reassuring docs and a nurse, and a wonderful husband trying to calm me down…
We all have to remember to be kind to ourselves despite the 1-2 hour correctable after meal spikes, and especially the high trend we get when sick or experiencing stress… Or just need a day off. =)
Congrat’s in your A1C ! I am one of those people who gets worked up over numbers but I can’t help it. To me it’s like a mind game, think the worse and pray for the best.
nobodys perfect. Look at non diabetics they cheat alllllll the time and never worry about what they do to their bodies. We diabetics are doing what’s best for our bodies and in the end it helps us feel better! In the end we can’t control everything, we all have bad days, we all do the best we can, and we all must pick ourselves back up, dust off, and try again.
