then and now

This was written around June 2006.

_____I had a conversation with a Diabetes Educator and a fellow Type Two. This woman muttered "I don't want to go on the needle".
______I replied "me neither".
______The Diabetes Educator said in a very earnest voice "I'm not a diabetic but if I were, I would skip the pills and go straight to injected insulin".
______When I told my diabetics coach yesterday, I said "she is not a diabetic and doesn't understand the fear of having to use the needle for the rest of my life. I don't want to use the needle until I've tried everything else".
______She commented that "the needle" isn't such a bad fate. Sorry but I don't agree and want to keep from having to use injected insulin for as long as I can.

The following is being written on 4 October 2016. My circumstances are 
somewhat different!

I am now subject to the occasional morning hypoglycemia. That is, most of my morning tests show me at under 100 and in fact under 80. This morning showed me at 77. My MD told me that taking evening insulin to drop my evening scores of 160 - 200 would probably drop me even deeper into hypoglycemia.






I am going to be seeing a blood specialist later this month due to my red blood cells being enlarged.




The scary part of this is the blood specialist is also a cancer specialist. Oh, fuck me!




My family MD, Michael N. Rooney OD told me not to worry about cancer." If there ain't anything to worry about, why bring it up?
