Guest guest Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Hi Becky. What r u having trouble with about taking your sugar? I'm worried about you since u don't have your meds. But anyway i was going to tell u before,my wife, even though not a diabetic, takes the same med that you do. She has trouble metabalising sugar, however she is not a diabetic, the doc told her so. Her blood tests are always normal when they check. Yes that is about the same for all regular 12 oz cans of soda. What i do for sugary substances though so i know i hav enough insulin on board is round it up to 50 grams of carbs. which is 16.666666 something units of insulin, if u divide by 3 which i do. Are u on insulin as well as that met morfine stuff? later *hugs scott -- Please visit my website at www.samobile.net/users/scott2089 My skype is scott20122012 Have a great day! 73's kb0clz Email services provided by the System Access Mobile Network.

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 Becky, Do you have any sighted friends or family members or neighbors to help you understand what is happening when you prick your finger? You can also contact your doctor and look into receiving some assistance to learn how to check your blood sugar. This is the absolute, most essential part of treating your diabetes. A diabetic can simply not treat his or her diabetes properly without knowing what is happening with their blood sugar. Many of us are checking our blood sugars successfully as blind or visually impaired diabetics. So, it can be done. You can do it, but you just need to get a little training to build your confidence level.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 Becky, Can you get to your doc's office easily? It seems to me that you need to get some lessons on doing the BG correctly. I sometimes have trouble also and have to stick myself several times. I try to stick myself several times in the same place. I squeeze my finger before sticking myself as well as after doing it. It is very frustrating sometimes, but I don't feel I can control the diabetes well without knowing what my sugar is. Have you received your metformin yet? _____ From: blind-diabetics [mailto:blind-diabetics ] On Behalf Of Becky McCullough Sent: Sunday, April 08, 2012 12:33 AM To: blind-diabetics Subject: Re: soda does not have as many carbs as you think Not bad.
