New Medicine

     October 8th, 2008    Posted by: Tilly

Welcome back!

Well, I went to the doctor yesterday. The diabetes hasn’t caused any damage, but I’m now on a new medicine. I sit here at 2:30 in the morning and write this.

The new medicine I have to take is Novolog insulin. I’m supposed to take it within 15 minutes of eating. It is supposed to work fast to bring my blood sugar down. Before I ate, my blood sugar was 183 which is high. Got up this morning and it was 312, which is even higher than it’s been for a while. I guess that I will just check it later this mornnig and see what it is then.

I am hoping that this medicine will eventually work, because I do not want any damage from blood sugars that are constantly too high. If it doesn’t work, I’ll have to tell the doctor and let her decide what to do next. Shots are no fun, but losing my sight, or the feeling in my hands and feet is even uglier. So, here’s hoping that it will start to work properly.

    Medicine changes are always a shot they will be good or bad. Sounds like yours is not working as it was supposed to do. It means a call to the doctor but that would certainly be better than the alternative. Praying for it to work for you.
