I'm feeling pretty good all things considered. I get tired more easily, but I'm not exhausted all the time. I get hungry really quick, and if I don't eat really soon after that I get pretty nauseous. Other that that and brushing my teeth in the morning, I don't have much nausea. My boobs still hurt, but not as bad as they did. Seatbelts still suck tho. I bought three new sports bras this week and they've been wonderful.
I've got lots of random pulls and twinges in the nether regions. And a fair amount of gas pain. But my books say that pains that last less than four hours are normal, and lots of pulls and twinges are normal now too. My books have been reassuring already.
The insulin thing is going OK too, I guess. This week was hard with all the pies and stuffing and potatoes and whatnot. I'm trying to be good (moderate) and I think I'm doing an OK job. I'm taking my sugar at least three times a day and taking my insulin twice a day like scheduled. The blood pressure cuff I ordered should be here this week, so I'll start taking my blood pressure daily too.
On Wednesday I'll be wanting to talk to Dr. Schwartz about a lot of things:
1) What (if anything) can I use for a shampoo to help my psoriasis? My scalp is getting really bad already.
2) I'll be turning in my first page of blood glucose readings for review.
3) I'm going to ask if they can adjust my insulin prescription. My current prescription is 1.5 vials a month and my insurance won't let me have the 2nd vial because it would be more than 30 days' worth of insulin. (Yes, it's very stupid and I plan on calling them tomorrow.)
