I was a high-risk pregnancy ( my daughter is 26. ) and I lived at the hospital for 4 months. Constantly giving blood to a bunch of vampires. Found out that I had type 2 diabetes. Okay, start the diet and finger pricking. When the C-section was over and done with, I went home....There's no follow-up no calls, no nothing. Years go by, get some blood work done and wouldn't you know it! Full -blown diabetic!! My blood sugar was at 11. Here's the thing, I never had any symptoms. My doctor said "We're going at this aggressively!" Okay? I had a diabetic nurse call me and of course and ask's me a boatload of questions." Have you gained any weight? " NO, lost 70 pounds, okay have you felt dizzy, dry mouth? ect, ect. I told her," I'm on medications that cause dry mouth and whatnot." She got quiet.....What do you eat?" Whatever I want, zero restrictions." She gets quiet again. I kinda laughed and said I don't know what to tell you. "Okay, do what you're doing and if you have any questions please call me." Sure! End of call. So I'm taking the medication and life goes on. I received a phone call a few days ago and it had to do with trimming my toenails. What? The woman asks me to set up appointments. Yeah, no I'm not doing that. She caught a bit of an attitude with me. You're mad because I'm not following your orders? She hung up aggressively! I've been a diabetic for damn near 30 years and never knew.
