Well things have settled down nicely, hes healed up from that wound (infection area). I still cant believe that happened. Reducing his lantus to 30 per morning has cleared up the early morning wake ups at 50! lol now hes in the 80s-90s in the mornings. He is doing great thru the daytimes as well. we did have a set back yesterday, we all slept in late and it was NOON when we finally did get up.. WHEW talk about tired people. well needless to say jerry was way low, then he drank two orange juices, and then ate lunch (breakfast) LOL, then turned around and ate an oatmeal, oops put him up in 250s. So he played fun that day getting it down and regulating it. He did do it though. so good for him. He is taking more and more active role in his own health now.. FINALLY!!!!!! (mommie was getting tired) (not to mention Cranky as all get out)! I reinjured this blasted knee again somehow. So he will have to do for himself! He is making better food choices and monitoring himself and Writing things down now, although not as much as he should.. but somethings written down are better than NONE. but instead of harrassing him about not putting everything he eats down on it, i just keep telling him how great it is for what hes doing and gee surprise, he flourishes under praise where the harrassment made him balk and resist .. duh me. I think i was just too frustrated. He finished the last of his antibiotics today, so our revisit is in 2 1/2 weeks to doc for check up. I guess ill p ost now, as occurances happen, as things SEEMMMMMM to be coming around. i guess maybe that infection had been what was messing with his blood sugars all along!!! Making us all nuts not being able to figure out why one thing would make it high yet drop him low another time. I will post again when something of interest occurs.. for now its same ol same ol, NO PAINS!!!!!! and his gastroparesis pain is sooo much less too! so bonus again!
