I hit low this morning — 40 to be exact.<\/p>\n
I’m not sure what happened. My blood sugar was 136 before I ate breakfast. I ate a very low carb breakfast, but then I usually do. Started laundry, came upstairs to do a low, felt really dizzy, sat down at my desk and took my blood sugar and it was 68 using my arm. Took it again with my finger and it was 40.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
So I ate a couple of glocose tables, then grabbed a couple juice of boxes. Sugar had gone up to 70. <\/p>\n
Most of my supplies and literature were downstairs. I knew I didn’t want to burn any sugar at all, so stayed put. Remember the Nurseline provided by my insurance company — to get a “rebate” at the end of the year we had to fill out a survey early in the year and use the nurseline twice, so I decided to give that a try.<\/p>\n
It worked out very well. With my husband out of town, I really wanted someone to talk to. I assume if I’d have disconnected, they would have called local emergency and sent help, since they had all my information (and verified it). Though that might be a dangerous assumption.<\/p>\n
I never really felt in danger, but I did want some support which the nurseline provided.<\/p>\n
I’m fine now, but man I hate that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
