I was diagnosed with diabetes.
After being checked into a care center for rehabilitation they checked my sugar level and it was 400 and something, then a few days later it was up to over 600.
So they started me out with insulin to cover me and a long-acting insulin that I take early every morning. I was doing great until I was outside smoking a cigarette and my sugar bottomed out.
They got me into a wheelchair and brought me inside and started me drinking juice and eating pudding to get my sugar back up.
I have now gotten to a very good level in the morning which runs between 102 and 125. In the afternoon it goes up to 150 or below.
That is because we have coffee and a snack. But I am learning to eat better and I am keeping my numbers better than when I came in here.
