Day by Day. December 17, 2018

       Nothing new or interesting. Life as usual. Today fasting is 70 Mg/dl. Yesterday it was 179 mg/dl. WOW!  But really it is nothing unusual Day bead low blood sugar.Sugar was so low that I hardly was able to get to kitchen. My man was at home. he fixed meal for me. I did not check level of sugar. I was too weak and was in harry to bite anything. For then end of the day I was very very sleepy. We had tickets to NY Phil. I hardly was able to wake up and dress. At the time we cone to Lincoln Center I got a little bit better.
       Concert was very good. I love this time of the season in NY City. In NY Phill it is Messiah by Handel, the story of Jesus life. In Chamber Music it is Bach and Baroque Collection following by Winter Festival. In Metropolitan opera it is a New Production right on December 31 eve, and Magic Flute by Mozart for Christmas. Also there are many consents in all Churches, Organ and Choir. It is great time to be in NY City for Christmas. There are ballet in Koch Theater, but tickets are too expensive, so we do not buy them. Sometimes we go to Lincoln Center Theater, and I love this theater very much. Tickets also costly. We can buy then only once on season.
        So, when we come back after concert I took 160 units of Insulin. It was all what I took for full day. There is reason why in the morning sugar was 179 mg/dl. Anyway I got better, and I fixed dose of insulin. So, today sugar is back to normal.
      There are so many publications how to count dose of insulin. I tried many times, and I never was able to use the math. Just add- more, or decrease a little bit. It is all the time just up and down. There is no dangerously high level of sugar in blood. Also sugar does not drop down to 38 mg/dl anymore. I am hungry and weak with 70 mg/dl still it is not fatally danger low sugar. It can be fixed. When I read some posts how people educate others what to do when sugar is low. "I will take two tablets of (some sort of medicine I forgot its name), and ny sugar will be up to .... back to normal."- how they present they are dealing with low sugar. When if they do have low sugar aw 90 mg/dl then it is really very helpful tit to take two spoons of sugar. I am diabetic type 2. Fantasy do not work for me.
     With low sugar best way for me is to take soup, hot soup, veggy. It works very well but always not available. Hot coffee, hot milk, two or three glasses at once. Anyway it must be nutrition, not sugar. Sugar give crash. For me it is always headache, very severe, heart rate up, sleepiness. I have to go to sleep right away. After low sugar it takes time, all day or even two days to get back to feet.
   Yesterday it was rain in NY City. Today it is sunny day, worm and bright. In day like that sugar is all the time getting better. I do not know why, but it is really good time. even it is cold days ahead, and snow and storms, but Sun is shining, so we also start to feel better, more healthy, merry.
