Last night, I put a new set in. This morning, I got up and my blood sugar was 147 — it is normally around 110. I attributed that to losing track of carbs last night — I curled up in front of the TV with some crackers.
This morning my blood sugar was 257. Normally after breakfast I’m 150. So I decided the old set or insulin had to be bad, and switched everything out.
Now last year when this happened, I either had to sneak around to change the set, or I had to change it in a teacher’s lounge, or god forbid, the nurse’s office or the restroom (equally germ ridden).
Today, I waited until my planning period, locked the door and did it comfortably. If I’d had students in the room, I would have done the same in my closet.
It’s so nice to be back.
