to be quit honest everyone, i haven’t taken care of myself for the longest time. i was taken two shots a day for the longest time and then just stopped taking them, BUT this week when i started getting these heavy feet problems and blurred vision every night, i told myself enough is enough. for the past 4-5 days i have taken shots everytime i eat and drink, and ive been checking my blood sugar anywhere from 6-8 maybe more times a day!!! i have only had diabetes for 6 years and this is way to early to start having problems… i’m not going to let diabetes take control of me i am taking control of DIABETES!!! i hadn’t even checked my sugar in over a year until i started taking care of myself this week and when i tested my sugar was to high to even read then i brought it down to 593, then to 87 when i realized that my sugar had been running this high that day i knew it had to have been running this high for a long time now, i understand if everyone on here is going to be mad at me, or loose respect for me because i would too. but i realize now that I AM WORTH IT so i am taking care of my self better then ever and i keep inproving everyday. although today i skipped a shot and tested 541, i took 15 units of insulin and will be testing again in a hour and if it isnt brought down to atleast 130 i am going to take more insulin… i want to thank my fiance, mother and all my tudiabetes friends for inspiring me to realize that i am worth it and who helped me get to this point where i am now taking care of myself… THANK YOU ALL!!!
