sick

It started around 1am. I woke up coughing, sore throat, pounding head, and to add to that, a blood sugar of 194. Perfect. Do a correction of 1.15 units, and try to get back to sleep. I never really did. My alarm went off at 5:30am, like it always does on a weekday, so I shut it off and fell asleep. My mom comes in at 6, yelling for me to get out of bed, so I force myself up out of bed and test my blood sugar; 150, and make my way downstairs. My mom makes a comment that my eyes look bloodshot, so I told her in a raspy voice what was going on. She let me go back to bed after eating breakfast. At 9:30 I had a doctors appointment...wheezing, throat very red, ears don't look good either. I have bronchitis. They have me on an inhaler, and an antibiotic. The inhaler is killing my blood sugars...Overall, just a rainy, cold, and for me, sick day. I'm off to make some hot tea, and relax a little.
