Health Update

My blood sugars are still too high.

As I mentioned before, I've been put on insulin now and taken off two oral medications. The instructions were, at the beginning, to start with 10 units and increase the dosage by three units every three days until I get to 120 or below.

Now, I'm at 56 units a day and I'm still not down to 120, so I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, if that's a lot of insulin or what. Last week, I peaked at 235. Lately, I've been hovering at around 170 and yesterday, got it down to 150.

So, it feels like I'm kind of headed in the right direction, but it sure is a long haul getting to 120.
