Well, I am home early, and very discouraged. As I mentioned earlier, prednisone screws with your glucose, and thus, no PET for me today. My glucose was at 228.
I was psyched up to do it, dammit. Oh well.
So, I am stopping the pred as of now; the lungs seem to be doing OK anyway. They said track my glucose for three days, four times a day and when it's under control again, call 'em up.
Must avoid those carbs, too. No toast. I'm going to lose weight again. But we can't do the scan over 200... it's just that I am not supposed to lose weight. Oy vey.
Ok, so we'll work on this. And we'll get the scan. Minor set-back.

Oh geeze, so much to thing about and get right. I am sorry you could not get this taken care of today, you must be anxious to find out if everything is ok. Oh well, the weekend is right around the corner, I do like the weekends.
ReplyDeleteYou take care and get those levels down,
Have a safe and relaxing weekend
Fay in the very wet, lotsa rain and wind, Pennsylvania
It's driving me mad, Fay. I'm trying not to stress about it, but holy moley, my shoulders are tighter than ... um... a really tight drum?
ReplyDeleteI do love those whole grains, so I guess I'll find more of them. Maybe they will help with the weight problem as well. Who knew I'd ever get so obsessed over NOT losing weight. :D
