hi journal, Well, went to the drs today as feet as very swollen, and of course they had to find something else to deal with,as usual...I am wearing a heart monitor the next 24 hours,as they say my breathing is not real good..I know nothing is wrong, but it made me sort of upset,as went for the feet, and seems like they have to always do something else to worry me. The dr told me to walk and maybe the feet would go down some.. I told him, if I could walk I sure would!!! Last week he told me to prop my feet up.. I am lucky to make it from the bedroom to the livingroom... He thinks the feet is caused by me being a diabetic... I showed him my log and he was not too happy... He wants me to eat breakfast,well at 61 years old, I doubt if I have had any breakfast the past 50 years..But will give it a try, and see what happens.. They upped my insulin, so now taking about 9 shots per day.. Need to take one before breakfast, lunch and dinner and once before the 3 snacks,and of course I take 2 different ones at night,and the extra one in the mornings...Geeze how do I have time for all of these...I need  a 50 hour day now..Bet if I drank more water, it would come out all the shot holes!!. But will try all of this and see what goes on... Got to get these sugars down...I  know I go to the drs office way too much since they all know my name by heart, and I know there names..I know about my nurses children, and her garden, and her plants... I know the office girl's pets and even the dr, I know about his dogs.... Tomorrow I take sis to her dr, and I am getting to know this dr also..Lets see, she loves the diamondbacks (ballteam) and has season tickets....but has not been able to use all the tickets this season...GEEZE!!!! Way to often seeing drs!! I believe they have a car or two to pay off!! I believe I try to do all they say, but sometimes it is hard...gets discouraging going and finding not much improvement....and then they try something else..I believe the heart monitor did me in, as I broke down and do not feel I can take anymore....Told the dr I did not want to know any results if they were not good..Now to wait 3 weeks for the results,as they have to send this tape out somewhere...I do not have time for anything else in my life right now....at least nothing that needs tending too. Where in the heck are the golden years????????????
