I'm not feeling particularly good about diabetes today. New levels of high and low the last couple of days. I changed my site on Saturday night, hit a nerve, changed it again, drew blood, thought it would be ok, woke up in the middle of the night with a 333, changed it again, bolused, went back to bed and was pretty tired on Sunday to say the least. Last night, tired, but restless. Legs aching, aching, aching. Tossed, turned, couldn't get comfortable. Not feeling low, but decide to check my bloodsugar anyway. 33. Huh? Test again. Yep. 33. No symptoms, just restless. Treat the low. Finally relax. This morning, I'm tired. Confused. Sick of diabetes. I wish I could be philosophical about it today. But I can't. Today I'm just sick of it all, plain and simple.
Major suckage.

I've had a knitting blog for almost two years. I've been diabetic for almost 27. And I just started reading a few diabetes blogs. I just wanted to tell you, the same struggles have happened to me. But I always thought I was the only one who had these problems - that I had somehow failed where every other diabetic had no problems. So a part of me feels like much less of a failure reading your post. But a bigger part of me thinks it really rots that you are having some off days. Thank you for sharing, and I'm hoping everything settles down right away.

Sorry .... I hear what you are saying, and know how you are feeling.... Sorry.

it's so hard for "the others" (no, not the ones on "lost" -- the non-diabetics) to understand just how hard it is on the body. I feel tired for you.

Prayers...for enduring once again..with beauty & beautifully. My heart feels the pain & weariness.
It comes to me all too often. I hope today you are a bit better.
