well this is what I want to be doing at 3 AM

[cornerofmadness]

Woke up from a bad dream. Had to pee. Seems like a fuse blew out (because there's nothing nervous-inducing like realizing that happened while you were asleep) Then I realized my stomach was growling and I was shaking. I tried to ignore that then decided no, go test your sugar. You just upped your insulin to the full dose (doc said, let's hope this won't crash it. it might but shouldn't. After three days at slightly less with no change I said okay up to my usual dose)

my sugar is 55. well it was about a half hour again. I was a little too incoherent to type then. I was barely able to figure out how to suck on my dissolving sugar pills. I've had a full meal more or less now (if you call cheese bread, a hot dog, a baby bel cheese wheel and some PB a meal)


naturally I have to be up very early today to get to work so now I'll b e up all damn morning. Unfair. Feeling a little stable now but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous about lying down and shutting my eyes.

Ugh! I couldn't sleep all night and finally got up because my earplugs were hurting my ears (which I have to wear because my upstairs neighbors like to walk around their apartment really loudly and I need dead silence to sleep). Which means it's going to be a 3-4 cups of coffee type of day for me.

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Geeze. Feel better. Soon.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

F: I had that in SF. Hard wood floors above and neighbor who liked to wear spiked heels. One reason I made sure my new place did not have an upstairs of any kind. And only one shared wall with neighbors.



Take care of yourself, D!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks

i awlays made sure i WAS the upstairs neighbor

I now also try to avoid climbing stairs every day. Bad knees.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

ditto. i freak out the therapist when I'm there working since they sound so horrible

[masqthephlsphr.livejournal.com]

One reason I specifically looked for places with one floor only. No one above you, and no stairs!

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

i have to walk the stairs. part of the therapy

[masqthephlsphr.livejournal.com]

If I had stairs, I'd never hear the end of it from the Masq!Mom.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

hahaha my mom with a matching set of fake knees has way more steps than me (since I just have the insane drop offs out of teh apt and off the porch. Mom has a split level house)

[salomesensei.livejournal.com]

Oh health, so much wtfuckery.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

oh no kidding. seriously, thank goodness i drank too much tea before bed. if I hadn't had to pee I might have slept my way into a coma. geez

[salomesensei.livejournal.com]

No comas, kudasai!
Srsly, sorry you had such a shitty night.
I anticipate rivaling you for them soon.

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

thanks. yeah you probably will be I'm very sorry to say. Hopefully the chemo won't be too hellacious

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Well, yes. That as well.
