I’m in agreement with Brian. Maybe you have what Kerri Sparling refers to as [a very severe case of] “Real People Sick” in her Terms of Diabetes Endearment:
Real People Sick: The differentiation between bloodsugar issues and the common cold. Phrase slips out most often when the diabetic admits to not feeling well and must specify that it is not bloodsugar related.
I hope you get to feeling better very soon.
