Every year for the past five years or so my birthday wish has been to have no debilitating diseases or further complications from diabetes. I got tired of that and wanted to wish for something else this year, so what happens. I go to bed at 163, 20 minutes later I feel odd and think, maybe my blood sugars low but I just took it and it was kinda

I totally feel for you. Ive had the worst week. Im absolutly considering shelling out the 400 bucks for a pump upgrade and the 1000 for the new sensors from medtronic that give you the constant blood glucose monitoring straight to the pump screen. I mean, I really loath the idea of more training and more crap in my side, but damn. I was so lucky my girlfriend was home yesterday. I just laid down on the bed and couldnt move. Its the first time Ive ever had to use one of those damn glucagons. Some weeks really do feel like a little prayer to god, buddha, whoever is about the only thing keeping me alive, lol. Its like first ting when you wake up in the morning, "God, Buddha, Allah, Krishna, whoever is listening today, Id really like NOT to die. Thanks." ha! Uhg.

How do you handle drinking? I cant even put back a glass/pint without it freaking out my blood sugar.

God it sucks to be us.

Thank God/Buddah/Krishna/Allah amalgamation you're ok. How long after taking the glucagon did you feel better? And how did your girlfriend manage using that harrowingly massive needle? I've never had to use it before. I've had people tell me they wouldn't be able to use it on me, because they don't want to risk hurting me. Ummm, believe me, if it's that bad, I want you to use the damn thing
