Lately, I have been forgetting to note down my “forks down” time. I’m trying to do better but I am not sure if it really matters.

My heart surgeon asked me to keep track of my morning blood sugar, The last time his RN checked it, it was low. I think his meter was defective.

*Insulin

**I felt light headed around 10 am and looked up the causes. The main three were stroke, dehydration and hypoglycemia. I felt a mixture of hunger and stomach pain soon after and decided it must be hypo!

*** I think I took my evening pills.^.

^**** We had spaghetti for dinner and the resulting high blood sugar was a horrifying surprise,

 

Pen: I received a chilled bag with one Ozempic Pen. This is good for 4 weekly shots of 0.25 mg and 2 weekly shots of 0.5 mg, The Pen is incredibly easy to use. It was literally painless and in fact, was much less painless than testing my fingers. I will have to see how future shots are.

The VA Pharmacy told me I would be getting 2 pens vice one. It seems so many non-diabeteics (the bastards!)  are using Ozempic for weight loss that there could be a shortage. It just means I might go without for a few days even if I order 15 days in advance.

Two VA RNs instructed me and I am tempted to go back in a week to have them supervise my second shot. I don’t think I will need further training and I don’t think I’ll need my wife to inject me.

Day 2 of being on Ozempic

First are two good results of starting to use Ozempic (started two days ago) and three ungood results.

? Weight Loss

✔ Diarrhea

✔ Nausea

✔ Stomach (abdominal) pain
