First off HELLO TuD friends. I haven't been on here since August 2009!! I feel terrible. How is everyone doing?

so about two weeks ago i went into DKA. I was admitted into the hospital on thursday and well it sucked. i honestly don't remember much about the first 24 hours. I remember my boyfriend carrying me to the car and then putting me in a wheel chair and taking me into the ER. Then i remember waking up in a white room with a bright light on above my bed. I guess i passed out at some point. The doctor came in and told me that my blood sugar was at 902 and that i was damn near coma and that my body… Continue
