February 2018
AM is a blood test done immediately after I get out of bed (well, after I pee) and PM is the evening blood test done two hours after I lay the fork down at the end of my evening meal.
1 The morning "score" on 1 February (107) is a touch higher than what I would like to see. The evening "score" (112) is massively lower than what I had expected! I have the feeling that my upcoming A1Cs might be a touch lower than they usually are and that I will be safe from "the needle" (insulin) for a while longer!
I said "A1Cs" (plural) rather than A1C (singular) as I am getting blood work at both the family MD and the VA in a couple of weeks. (Many things change. When the VA Doc learned that I had blood work done at the clinic, the VA cancelled their blood work. Given the A1C would not have changed much, this was a wise decision...

2 I had a rich dinner and forgot to take my pills until over an hour after starting dinner. We went out to dinner in our annual celebration of getting our income taxes paid off. Where the fuck was our Income Tax cut? We got screwed!
3 I went back to taking 5 mg glipizide in the evening as well as 5 mg in the morning. We had salmon last night. So, it appears that one or both lead to a rather low morning score on the 27th: 76.
