Knorris replied to Stemwinder's discussion 'Looking for help not praise'"Absolutely the hardest part is the sticking!! Ive wondered the same thing. Your meter should help you stay the course. In a way we have a guard to help us. When/if I have higher than 140 1hrpp I know to watch it. To exercise and watch what I eat and…"
Knorris replied to Lostt's discussion 'Howdy! I'm new here!'"I find it quite interesting that your doctor (and mine) because we have good A1c's and/or fasting bg we arent diabetic! sheesh dont they know it never goes away just hides out until we screw up a meal or ten!! We do, whats up with them!"
Knorris replied to chrissi's discussion 'Type II Diabetes and Exercise'"What kind of exercise are you doing? I have found a "hard" exercise puts my sugars up but a "gentle" one doesnt. A walk is better than a run and light weights for a longer time is better than heavy ones faster."
Barbara replied to Knorris's discussion 'when..'"hi Zoe,
I understand why you are bemused. I had Hashimoto's and had a partial thyroidectomy and I have peripheral neuropathy. I am not sure whether the neuropathy is due to sugar so I stick with him and my neurologist( who keeps telling me that…"
Knorris replied to Knorris's discussion 'when..'"At least now people have a chance to help theirselves before getting complications. I feel fortunate I was diagnosed at a relatively low fb. That said Im wondering, like MyBustedPancreas & BadMoon, if thats where the epidemic came from. We were…"
Tim replied to Knorris's discussion 'when..'"You can get angry all you want about where the diagnosis line is today or was a couple years ago, but for thousands of years the definition of diabetes was "sugar in urine" and nothing else. In the past couple decades we've seen a…"
Zoe replied to Knorris's discussion 'when..'"I'm always a bit bemused when I see phrases like "my endo insists on seeing me every 6 weeks." Since you aren't on any meds and have excellent numbers, what in the world would be the purpose for that? I believe that we, as…"

I must have one heck of a set of shoulders to bear all this weight. My fingers are slipping on the branch that I'm hanging onto above the fire pit!!!

My BGs are still a little higher than I'd like them to be, but what I need to do is get out and exercise more than my once-a-week folk dancing. I know people who LOVE to exercise, but I'm not one of them! :-(

- At least I know how to get to Winnemucca (fall asleep on I-80):-)
The thin cats are Oriental Shorthairs and Siamese. I think they're a beautiful breed! :-) All the cats on the pictures are cats I've had or still have. I'm only missing 2 which I had before I got my handy dandy computerphilic camera.
As far as the A1c of 10.7 -- I had a bad problem during 2010 with rising BGs that I couldn't control no matter how much insulin I took, and I ended up in a coma. My (former) endo didn't recognize that for me, it was a life-threateningly high A1c -- I never had one over 7 before in 19 years. I expect my next one to be back in the 6's, now that I have a new endo who actually knows how to use a pump (he's Type 1 himself). Neither he nor I know why I was suddenly having such severe insulin-resistance, but it seems to be gone now, whatever caused it. I'm back down to reasonably normal levels of insulin, and good BGs.

- I guess things are not going to good for me. I have been trying like heck to get out of this hellhole of a nursing home! I hate it here. I hate the small room; I hate the lazy aides; I hate the food; I hate the rules and regulations! Pray for me! I can't seem to do it. My beliefs in a higher power and getting weaker and weaker. I just can't believe that a good God can allow all this horrible stuff to happen to me!!
Feeling a little negative. Guess I had better close off so I don't pull anyone else in my "downer" mood.

- Only in Nevada could we be called close! :-) It always amuses me when friends from the east call me and say "I'm going to be in Las Vegas -- why don't we get together for lunch?"
So what are you doing in Winnemucca -- the REAL Nevada??? :-)

- Did you know that Danny is in Las Vegas? That makes 3 Nevadans that I know of! :-)
