Has this ever happened to you?
I am feeling Low. So I eat a banana; then I think: "Oh Crap! I didn't check my blood!
So I go check my blood. The result is 200 !
I think: What?!? and treat by giving myself insulin.
My husband sees what is happening and says, "Did you wash your hands?" (Did you know you need to wash your hands? They may have sugar on them from hugging your sticky kids, or something.)
Hello Synapse!!!!
So I wash my hands. Then I check my Blood. AAAGGGHHH--52 ...
Oh Crap: I just gave myself a GALLON of insulin!----Better get eating... and eating... and eating... (This is where eating the entire contents of the Fridge would come in handy).
And the moral of the story is: Always wash your hands before checking your blood.

Okay, I just started reading your blog and I'm freaking out. Are you diabetic? I had no idea. Type I or II? From the fact that you're insulin-dependent, I would say Type I. Did you know that I've been diabetic since I was 8 years old? And I can totally relate to this story!
I had no idea. I guess there were alot of gaps in our friendship. I was diagnosed when I was almost 19 with Type 1 Diabetes. We should compare notes or something.
