@Terrie. I too experience fast dropping low blood sugars do to emotional tension. Perhpas this is why I am not a gambling woman, each day is a gamble when your blood sugars go where & when they wish. Ah, just another of life wtih The Big D challenges. Hey this disease either makes us or breaks us and I have been told I am one tough cookie. My hubster says I am a marshmallow wrapped in barbed wire. He may be on to something, lol.
@latvianchick I don’t know what to say other than, it sucks to be you. I cannot imagine the pain you must endure, back injuries are always difficult at best. The not being able to sleep problem does not help one survive chronic pain which is always nawing on our ability to navigate the world. Some days are harder than others and I guess we all try to do the best we can without giving up. And, don’t you just hate it when the men in medicine dismiss a woman’s health claims when they can’t figure it out! Oh if I was a more dangerous woman than I am, and I was the kind of woman that killed people, I would be taking out these so-called med professionals who dimiss woman out of hand. There I said it, and I feel better. Stay strong latvianchick!
