Time for a change….

Hi Everyone. I haven’t been posting here much lately because I have been having a hard time and have been pretty down in the dumps. I have not only been having a terrible time managing my blood sugars, but I have several other chronic conditions that are taking a toll! Looking back, this is probably the time when I needed to post here the most! Oh well. Moving on….

I got some upsetting news (which wasn’t at all a surprise) at my endo appointment this week. My current a1c has gone back up to 7.8. I have been blessed so far not to have any major complications from my consistently poor numbers other than not feeling well physically or emotionally. I am aware that this could change very soon if I don’t make extreme changes in my diet and develop better communication w/ my dr so my pump settings can be fine tuned. More often than not, I range anywhere between 50-300 in a day. I can blame it on hormones, stress, illness, etc…but the truth is that I feel totally guilty about my diet and put most of the responsibility on myself. I should have this down by now.

I don’t have much to say except that I am not feeling happy about all of this and thought maybe you guys would understand. 🙂
Thanks for reading my rant! I promise to post a happy post next time!
