I did an evening check of my blood sugar to find it was 385. I felt no high blood sugar symptoms. The last time I had a 390 I went to the er but was sent home after about seven hours without so much as a bag of saline to help my sever dehydration. (Normally I’d be swearing by now but I don’t know you.) My blood sugar has to dip to the 40’s before I feel hypoglycemic. Maintaining any type of food regimen is more than difficult as I have severe gastroparesis. I’m at my wits end. It seems as though some of the traditional advice doesn’t work for me. With this story even medical professionals start to think it sucks to be you. Ok, I’ll quit whining but any direction and/or words of encouragement would be appreciated.
