Just thinking. October 28, 2017

       I am just thinking, why people need to post they do have diabetes? Yesterday in one of diabetic's forum some lady posted she dropped her A1c blood sugar level from 13.3% down to 6.3% just withing three month!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fantastic result! Of cause if it is not fake. So, I asked a few questions, and there are answers. Her highest reading was 278 mg/dl. her MD was shocked when MD saw this number, really? Just within three weeks her numbers returned back to 6.3%. almost normal.normal. She takes Metformin and 10 units of insulin (I did not ask her the name of insulin). So fantastic results! There is only one problem, it is no one way that sugar drop from a1c 13.2% down to 6.3% just withing three month. It is understandable she is diabetic. Still, there is no way to have A1c=13.2%. But probably I am wrong. All people are different. She is 37. I am 65. We are not comparable.
      Ok, I am not so lucky. I try very hard to hold numbers as low as I can. Still, it is all the time ups and downs. Today sugar is 133 mg/dl at 11:43 am. Yesterday last shot of insulin was taken 100 units at 01:47 am. Why it was so late? We went to Met Opera. The reading was after we returned home. Before we left for Lincoln Center I took 100 units. So, total was 300 units for Yesterday. Today in the morning sugar is 133 mg/dl. Odd, as I do think. But this is as it is. Right now I injected 100 units. I just took my morning meal.
       Now it looks I cannot curb numbers from climbing up. Is this because of Flu season? Because of Winter? Or it is severe edema I suffer right now so I have to do so, and this treatment increase numbers on glucose meter? I do not know. I just try to do my best to keep up with numbers, and do not let them get out of control.
      Person on forum obviously has no one idea what diabetes is, and how really 13,2% looks like. For her it is just numbers. Not for us. But those who has no one idea where post is true or fake she sound more true then I do. People usually have not acceptance that one can take 300 units of insulin daily. I also would not believe in that if it was not I, and if this insulin was not injected into my own belly. I do not try to convince anyone I am true and lady on forum has no diabetes at all.  Probably I am not right and she has the diabetes, Really it does not matter. It is not only does she have diabetes or not, she still do not know that not possible to drop A1c from 13,2% down to 6,3% within 3 month.
    BTW, she all the time post she injected insulin. She never say, what type of insulin she inject. Very odd. Every insulin has name. It is baby of different companies, and every baby has its own name. I inject insulin. I do know name of many medicine.
