  • CDE Visit

    Saw my CDE today and will see her before the trip to Monte Carlo so I warned her.

    We dropped my evening bolus since i’m consistantly correcting 180s. I may need to drop it further but I’m into small corrections.

    Best news…lost 3 pounds and blood pressure was 116/74

    From my Treo

  • Man, you got to watch them…

    Medco again.

    I asked my contact lens doctor to write a 90 script for Restasis and fax it to Medco. He wrote the script for a 30 day script, and they shipped it and charged me for a 90 day.

    Sometime the week before last, I called and was told that they would credit my account for the difference between a copay for 30 day. Got my credit card bill today, credit wasn’t on there. Checked the Medco site, credit wasn’t there either. So I called. The person on the phone claimed the credit happened today. Of course, it happened when I talked to him, but that doesn’t really matter as long as I get the credit. Of course, I did get charged interest ….

  • Traveling

    My husband decided for me, I just ordered a battery for my CPAP — mostly for the trip, but we’ve had enough power outages that having it would possibly save a hotel bill or two and will give some peace of mind.

    Called American and I don’t have to have the CPAP and battery cleared ahead of time. They did say everything had to fit in one carry on bag, so I’m going to look for something on wheels that I can put everything in. Actually my existing computer bag might do the trick.

    Also called the hotel today, found out there is a business center available with computer and internet access, but didn’t ask for the charge. Something we’re better off not knowing.

  • Delusions

    I got a bit delusional today.

    Woke up and blood sugar was in the 90’s. Got up, dressed and headed out the door for a private agility lesson. Picked up eggs and bacon at McDonald’s. Tested blood sugar after the lesson and was in the 90’s still. Ate two square Snickers, did a facility rental and checked the blood sugar again and was at 120.

    Got to wondering if the recent walking, sticking to things, etc was working better than expected and did I really need the pump.

    Well, I do.

    Got a depo shot and then ate lunch. Two hours after lunch, blood sugar was 214.

    Good news, is that after 50 minutes of cardio and weights and two hours after dinner, I was back in the 120’s.

  • Personal Challenge completed

    I “finished” my Challenge today, so I think for the next one, I need to increase my goals. It’s especially good, since I started the challenge on a Monday, and “finished” on Thursday.

    The first thing I have to decide when to start the next one.

  • Very interesting study on obesity surgery

    Type of Weight Loss Surgery Determines Insulin Resistance Effect

    With restrictive weight loss procedures, insulin resistance drops as weight loss increases, whereas with malabsorptive operations, resistance is completely reversed even before body weight normalizes, new research shows
