Friday is here... what a week!
The nurse called me back , I have an appointment Monday morning at 10:00, the Dr. said it could be the Cymbalta, or the hurting causing my high sugar readings.
So I have no idea what is going to be done. I just know I don't want to have to start taking insulin shots.
I can't remember if I told you , Britney took a break from college, but decided to start back this semester, all she liked was A&P 1 and 2 and she could get into nursing . Well she had her 1st big test on 4 chapters... she studied so hard every night.. She made an 86.. she passed. It's some hard stuff, I AM SO PROUD OF HER. Some of my stress has come from her taking this night class, it's every Thursday from 6-10 and it's about 40 minutes away from where we live, so you can imagine how I worry about her being on the road late at night like that. She always calls on her way home, that way I will know what time to be looking for her. This sure makes me understand the worry my momma and daddy used to have for me.. I sure didn't see it back then though, I thought they were crazy or something. Sorry!!!! I wonder how many times since I have had my own children that I have called my parents to say.. I AM SO SORRY!!! MANY TIMES. Part of life's circle.
I went to bed at about 9, and was back up at 11.... WHew, I am so tired, and my momma and sister Rhonda are wanting to go to Meridian today to check out all the thrift stores there, there's about 3 or 4, and we haven't been in a while, but I just really don't know if I am up for it.. I know I will have fun.. but it's about 45 min. away from here and I know it will be an all day thing, The riding is rough on me. Don't know what I am gonna do yet? You know the old battle of the mind.. my mind wants to go, but my body says.. YOU BETTER STAY HOME!!!
I hope all of you have a wonderful weekend. Take care.. God Bless You! Lori

I would get off the cymbalta first and see what happens. Then I would talk to your doctor and ask her about trying some chromium picolinate about 200 to 800 micrograms and then maybe some (ALA) alpha-lipoic acid 300 to 600 mg daily. See what she has to say and what she thinks. I hope you are takeing a walk everyday. Exercise everyday is important for diabetes.

Good news for Britney.She earned the grade.
I hope the Dr. can get your sugar level.And you can have more good days.
A lot of people take chromium picolinate to lower their blood sugar, check it out on line,or ask your Dr.And exercise is important.Stitch has some good advice for you.
Have a good night.
