So I am feeling much better, but cannot contain my thirst. Looking back, I realized I had not ever been this thirsty except for when I was pregnant. I had headaches and was extremely thirsty all the time. I would even wake up as if I had not had anything to drink in days. I thought this was just being pregnant until I went in to have my finger pricked as I always did every month. The scariest day of my life. Anyones fasting sugars should be around 70 to 100. Mine was 782. I was literally escorted to the hospital. I'm there 2 days and must learn to give myself shots practicing on an orange. Just like that. I cant get out of it. I had had gestational diabetes. This is when you have enough insuln but not enough when pregnant. It ends once the baby is born.

Well I have been a little sick and my nose is stuffy, normal crap. 2 weeks ago I started checking my blood sugars. It was way low. I feel good, go on about my business, stop checking it. Headaches, being thirsty, confusion,combined with other symptoms I am dreading to believe. I realized that I have lost an incredible amount of weight very fast. (SO NOT COMPLAINING) but this is also a symptom. Not only that but a loss of appitite. I am putting all of this together thinking shit "I have NO health insurance." Yea that is the first thing I am thinking.

Run to find my book. Can't find it. I own a second bible called Prescription for Nutritional Healing. I am searching everywhere and end up whole fooding and buying another one. Ok I have the things already at home that I need to start taking again to stabalize my blood sugars. Chromium the number one thing. Years ago I was told when I got older I had a 70 percent chance of developing it. Well not me. I determined to live as healthy as I can. One thing is that STRESS brings this to the surface. Now that is not bad to find out if you have it, but I am one to believe that you can reverse this. Plus I did. My last birth I was the healthiest ever and was a diet controlled diabetic. I had this perfected. I have had no problems for a very long time. I think it is a combination of stress, work and transition. I have to see these signs as a need to take better care of myself. Now I need something to drink. Will prick finger in morning. Will remember to eat.
