I BLEW IT/BINGED (or at least, it is a binge for me ... Mood
Sunday, November 16, 2008 | A Tragic story

What is a meal for most is a binge for me ...  boy did I blow it.   Last night I had a meal deal at a place called In and Out Burgers.  I had a cheeseburger, fries and 7-UP.  This morning I had a lot of a bread I purchased from an Asian supermarket near me.  It was a "cream cheese" bread ... and the rest of the 7-UP I had from the night before.  I wasn't feeling well and checked my BG and it was "587"... I took two Glucophage and 2 Glipizide and tried to use the treadmill, but my arms would not stop shaking inside and I could not hold on and went in to lay down.  I slept for 4 hours.  I believe I would have slept on, except my aunt came over ... she is only 4 years older than me.  More sisters than aunt and niece.  I told her what happened and she got mad and said she did not feel sorry for me, I did it to myself.  She is right.  My sugar was "197".  Went to the supermarket and on the way out the "fall" began.  I was weak and shaky and sweaty and had trouble breathing ... my partner began to panic.  "What do I do?"  "What do I do?", he was asking.  I grabbed a handful of change from my pocket while holding onto the shopping cart and he ran to get me a soda from the machine outside of the store.  I struggled to the car and sat down on a concrete edge in the parking lot and Freddy came running with a soda for me.  I drank about half of it ... OH BROTHER !!!! ONE EXTREME TO THE NEXT ... had a sandwich when I got home and am afraid to test my sugar ...
