High ...Low Ping Pong

What a strange day yesterday was. I was at my kids Football Jamboree all day out in the sun and rain and not eating the best of food. My bloodsugar was up and down like a like a cursor on a heart monitor. I would go incredibly low, eat something to fix it, go high, take insulin, go low later...and the cycle continued. ...at least 3 times. Bad food, heat, rain,...and trying to count carbs on food that was difficult to figure...while sitting on the sidelines.
I didn't do so well but I always strive to do better.....I just keep going.
Wishing you "well" Bob

anutha day of pretty darn good.....

Hey hey, things are going well with my glucose levels. Why...I couldn't tell you. I'm doing what I normally do.
I would love to say that my expert application of indepth knowledge of the insulin versus carbohydrates ratio as it relates to exercise and stress management on the 12th of May in a leap year creates a known level of expectation of the know formula for diabetes success.....but I cant.
As always....I just keep trying to figure out the variables and tweak my life around them..

I just keep juggling the chainsaws....................

Keep Going.....Peace. Bob

A Day of pretty good......

My numbers ran pretty good today although I didn't do much differently than the previous few days. Maybe a few less carbs....it seems to be easier to track and make less mistakes when eating less carbs...

Got Di-uh-beeteees.......no more treat--eeees

Keep going....

Wishing you more.....Bob

well...I kept my eye out for a low yesterday

It would have been nice had I seen it. I absolutely crashed and burned at work yesterday. One of those stare at the computer screen, put your feet up on the desk,and fade in and out of consciousness. I did not feel it, and somehow I even did not hear my cgms buzzing at me. Thank goodness for my brother who shoved gatorade down my throat till I recovered.
Now I get to be on guard for highs.....man, the saga continues.
High Low ping pong ......and its a game I don't even want to play. An unwilling participant who begrudgingly has to learn the rules.....again.

You would think I could get it right after 44 years. Ah the Joys of Diabetes!!!!

CGMS wakin me up......

The good news is that my CGMS (continual glucose monitoring system) alarms when my blood sugar goes low...The bad news is that my CGMS alarms when I go low and I am sleeping...(good and bad) Yes, I am awake at 3a.m. and posting because I had an alarm. The good news is that I got up and treated it. Now to see if bed is an option again this morn.....
Wishing you more......Peace,, Bob

Drumming down low........

This past wednesday, I went to drum practice and had a severe low. It is amazing how your mind cant do the normal stuff when you are down in the upper 30's or low 40's.
I couldn't even find a beat for about 15 minutes into the session. ....not that I am a great drummer anyway. Newbie at best but having a ton of fun.

I have always heard that your higher learning goes first when you are in a low blood sugar situation. Finding and creating a beat must be a part of that..
Which is why I sometimes when I am low, I just stare at folks who are trying to have an indepth or mathematical conversation with me. Your brain just goes ppphhhhhtttt!
