Blood Sugar Patterns and Weirdness (sarah) |
 |

 |

7/26/10 South Carolina was beautiful. The heat didn’t interfere with my pod sites as often a I has expected or planned for. One issue was when I was swimming. I didn’t acknowledge the time that I had spent in the pool and when it dawned on me that I was feeling funny, it was too late. The water had weakened the adhesive on the pod an it was currently bobbing in and out of my skin, blood sugar was a craptastic 353.

7/20/10 While at work today, diabetes was butting its annoying little head into everything I was working on. My blood sugar was swinging from 150- HIGH all day today, making my life and my duties at work difficult.

7/15/10 Our voyage to South Carolina started at 6am this morning with the wailing of The Boyfriend’s alarm clock. I’ve been a nervous wreck for the past few weeks, each day condensing the amount of nervous wreck-ness, so hearing that alarm shocked me out of my shallow slumber.

7/15/10 On Thursday, The Boyfriend and I will be leaving Michigan for a few days to go south to South Carolina. His aunt is getting married and we are flying down to join the family in the festivities and celebration of a happy and blessed union. Honestly, I am not familiar with diabetes care in the south during the summer time.

July 11th, 2010 Most women get moody and crabby during the time of the month where they experience PMS, and honestly, I am no exception. I know, why am I discussing this, right? I’m discussing this because it is an important time of the month to pay attention to, especially for diabetic women.

Exposed: The good, The bad, and The Funny (Sarah) |
|

|
July 10th, 2010 Now that I’m using the omnipod, I feel as though my diabetes has been more public, like going from a one-piece bathing suit to a teeny bikini on the beach… you are exposed, just like my diabetes. I’ll wear my pod on the back of my arm and when I’m out in public, I expect the stares and the weird looks. What usually catches me by complete surprise and delightment is those that ask or comment on it.
