  • Bad beagle weekend

    To top things off, My oldest and best beagle had a seizure as we were going into the ring at an agility trial.
    It was not a grand mal seizure – in fact, I would have known what it was except for a vet at ringside who said it was a seizure.
    More to worry about. Right now we’re waiting for a blood workup.

  • Planning

    That’s the biggest change that diabetes has made in my life.  I have to plan everything and plan for everything.

    BD, I would grab a dog that was scheduled for dog class, jump in the car, and get there.  Now I have to make sure I have supplies available in case I lose a set, insulin goes bad, etc.  I have to test my blood sugar before I get in the car, before I get on the training field and again before I drive home.

    Today after school I’m going to a teacher workshop in Houston.  Going involved making sure I had enough supplies and even medications just in case something happened.  Hey, it is Houston, and they’ve been known to have weird things come up before without warning.

    But every action these days requires infinitely more planning than ever before.  I miss being spontanenous.

  • Medco gets scarier

    I asked for a Novolog that needed a refill.  Never got done — doctor’s office didn’t have a record of the refill request but they faxed a new refill anyway … By the way, all this via email….

    The Novolog is in the processed of being shipped.  I think I made the original request last Monday, and told the doctor about the missing refill on this Monday.

    Not too bad.  Though they should have gotten the fax to the doctor in the first place, but that could be the fax machine at the doctor’s office, in fact, I need to check that number, come to think of it.

  • Good service from Medco?

    Man, Medco is freaking me out, I’m actually getting good service from them.

    I ordered Symlin when it came due, and it was shipped correct and arrived a day early.

    And I also ordered my new Depo (Yes, I’m anal, since it isn’t due for another 10 weeks or so), and it was delivered today.

    WOW!

  • Battle Diabetes is down

    And in fact, have been for 12 hours.  Hopefully they will come back up fixed with their own content.

  • Vote Today

    I got up today and voted a straight Republican ticket — why?

    When the Republicans run things around Dallas, things get done.  Roads get built and things get better.

    When the Republicans run things around Texas, money gets spent towards schools, and especially teacher salaries.  When teachers make better salaries, I work with a higher class of people.  Not sure what it says about me, since I came in when our pay was the lowest.

    When the Republicans run the country, more people are employed.  That’s good for both me and my students.

  • Better….

    The prescription strength Zantac is helping.  I’ve been able to sleep all night, and the heart burn episodes are not as severe.

    Not as much chest pain either.  Still lots of coughing.
