that nasty kinda high feeling

high blood sugar readings make you feel rubbish.... end of. i mean, feeling tired, grumpy, thirsty, fidgety and irritated isnt a pleasant combination.

but there is a difference between the normal sleepy feeling and the high sleepy feeling, the normal kinda thirsty and the high thirsty etc etc, i think you get what im saying....

so for the last few days i have been taking tablets alone to see if they will work for me.... but no, they arent.... ive been higher than average almost all the time and instead of seeing lots of numbers in range, ive been seeing quite a few which are in double figures. not good. but then these readings leave me feeling totally crap if im honest, they have made me constantly sleepy and thirsty and sick and im fed up of feeling like that. you cant even just go have a nap cos its not the right kind of tired to actually sleep and the thirst is unquenchable, i have considered on more than one occasion just drinking straight from the tap.... (only another diabetic will truely understand)

so from tonight im going back to the insulin, i would rather inject 1000 times a day than feel like this, its rubbish and people dont appreciate that.
