top posting because I'm being really lazy cuz I'm tired lol.
well woman!!! you know I'm not going to biatch ya out this
time.. I know what stress will do to ya. I emailed you but
it bounced back the third time and first two no replied when
I found out about Dale.. I also tried to call but all I got was
voice mail.. left 2 messages but no return call.. figured you
were just too busy, so I said a double prayer for you and
dale.. very true, thank GOD! everything came back okay.
but what I DO want to say is when you go back to the Endo
why not ask them about Symlin? I've been on it and it's
really been a HUGE help!!! it's already cut my low dose of
insulin down from 36-38u a day total, down to 17-19u a
day total and thats everything!!! I'm having to eat like a pig
to stave off lows which is hard because it's killing my hunger!
lol hell what's one more shot at meal time huh?
something to think about... others do fantastic on it as well.
anyhow, you have my number.. buzz me when you get time.
I'm heading to bed now but will be home all day tomorrow
if you wanna chew the fat.. LOL <g>
hugs my friend.. no matter what anyone might say to you
this post, (including me) much hugs and loves my friend.
give Dale a hug for me please and let him know he's loved
as well.

I hope you are all doing great. I miss all of you and thought I would come
see what you all have been up to.
It has been a very hard couple months for me but I am getting to think
better now. At the beginning of March my DH had to have an emergency
Appendectomy they found through a CT Scan and in that scan they found a
very large mass in his Sigmoid Colon the covered the entire circumference
so had to have a colostomy a two weeks after the Appy.
Well needless to say I was frantic out of my mind with worry and fear.
The day of the colonoscopy they found Cancer in his Sigmoid Colon and
Thank God it was low enough he did not have to have a colostomy. Well
then I waited with fear for the Pathology report and Thank God again it
was Benign so no radiation or chemo but I am still in fear it will
return. He had to have what is called a Sigmoid Colon Resection where
they took out all the mass and some colon on each side of it to get all
of the cells but he is not back to work.
We went from early Feb til this week with no income but my SS but Thank
God again we did just fine.
I know you wonder why I am telling all this but I was sick too during
this time battling a two month old kidney infection and was on
antibiotics all that time and had to do things I just did not feel good
enough to do. I am very thankful though that I still have my hubby
because I could not live without him. That was one of the greatest gifts
I could ever get was to have him home and healed with me again.
Well I just had my second set of Labs since going to see this
Endocrinologist and they are not good at all. My A1c is now 10.3 . I am
on Novolog 40 units three times a day , Lantus 100 units at Bedtime and
Metformin 1000 mg twice a day. I just stay so dog gone hungry and so
tired I sleep all the time.
I am about to give up so thought I would come here to get my dose of
tough love :-) Well not really but I know I will :-) Anyway I am at my
end. I just can not do this anymore.
Anyway since I don't drink alcohol I guess I don't get any cheese with my
Whine :-) but just wanted to stop in and say hi to everyone. So Hi !!!
If anyone has an idea I am willing to listen before I throw in the
"sweet" towel. I have so much sugar in my body you would think I had the
greatest personality in the world LOL but one thing I do have is a bunch
of fat that I have to pry apart because the sugar sticks me together.
That stuff is better than glue so this Humpty Dumpty will sure not fall
apart.
Thanks for listening everyone. I know there are those of you worse off
than me and my heart is with you and if I could take it all away for any
of you I would as I don't wish this disease on anyone.
Again Thanks my friends
Love and Hugs to go around
Di
Hey there Reisa, Sleep well my friend.
I will sure give Dale a hug for you and he will love it LOL. He was so
scared if only you could have seen him. I will tell you more when I can talk
to you.
You should have my email but if not the one on these posts is good then I
will give you the one you lost.
As for phones we don't have our Nextels anymore. They were overcharging and
dropping calls at the last when Sprint took over so Dale is the only one
with a phone now. I don't have one because when he switched was right at the
same time he found out he needed the emergency appy then no money so no
phone for me LOL. I do however have the house phone still and I think you
have that number too.
Yeah stress but my numbers were way high before that because I can't stop
feeding my fat face. I did try the Symlin and it did not work for me as at
the time the nurse practitioner thought I may have gastroparesis so she took
me off it. I didn't notice a difference anyway. I had come down from over
500 and was more like 250-300 but the A1c was still 10.3 up from 9.7 from
four months ago.
Thanks for the prayers because I do believe they work or my Dale would not
be here today I don't believe. So he and I both appreciate them.
I am sorry you could not reach me. I have been sleeping a whole lot because
I am so tired I feel like just ... well won't get into that but I keep
telling myself tomorrow... but tomorrow never comes for me to do better or
feel better but I still live and hope :-)
Tell our girl I hope she is doing well and thanks for her wisdom on the
Synthroid LOL. BTW I had to remind them to even do the thyroid profile and
can you believe she forgot and had to call the lab to tell them to run one
off the blood she blew my vein with? The normal is 0.35 - 4.94 on the TSH
which is all she bothered checking and my result was 1.35 so I am wondering
if that along with the high bg's is why I stay so tired I want to drop.
Well anyway I am writing a book so I better stop this stuff
:-) thanks again !!!
