Hi

Seminolefan22

Hi. I've used this site off and on for years. So, I'm not "technically" new. Anyways, my name is Laura, I'm 39 years old, married to my best friend and soulmate Quint. We have 2 kids: Anna Grace is almost 14, and Jacob is almost 12. We have 2 chihuahuas named Arizona Faith and Cheyanne Hope.

Ok. So Tuesday, May 28th I went to urgent care. They told me that there was a lot of sugar in my urine and some ketones too. They couldn't get my blood sugar to read on the blood sugar monitor. They told me to go to the ER immediately. They started an IV, gave me fluids and did a lot of blood work. My blood sugar was 650. They gave me more fluids and insulin. I had to go to my family doctor yesterday and I've been put on 3 different types of diabetes medication. I have to check my blood sugar 2 times a day.

Sorry, I didn't mean to write a book.

Dang! Crazy stuff! I'm am glad you are making a change. The blood sugar of 650 is super high.
