Cliffenstein's Journal

It occurred to me that I've been getting steadily fatter, and doing steadily worse readings-wise, since I started going along with the new doctor's regimen.  Things improved, just not enough, when I haggled her down to regular insulin and Lantus instead of Lantus and Humalog, which costs $300 combined for refills.  Last night it struck me that one reason I'm getting fat is that I have to eat at night to avoid bottoming out in my sleep.   In effect I'm eating FOUR meals a day instead of the two I prefer. Just to see, I skipped the Lantis last night.  Lo and behold, my reading was still too high this a.m., but still 30 points lower than I'bve been having lately.

Sometimes I wonder what I pay these damned doctors for.
