[Diabetes-talk] Today...

Tue Jan 27 03:17:35 UTC 2009

Hi There Ladies:

I feel the same way.  But...Gotta watch it.  I feel wiped out when the sugar 
is really high too.  When I hit 70ish, I feel tired, cold, and usually by 
then, I'm dropping.  So it isn't long before I begin to have trouble with my 
balance--lightheaded.  As I continue to drop, my tongue begins to tingle, my 
nose, my lips, my throat, and even the roots of my hair.  There was one time 
I was taken to the hospital--somewhere down in the lower 40's, When Bill 
came from work to get me at the hospital after I'd been taken in, he was 
rubbing my hair and I had to tell him to stop because my head was tingly. 
It was really strange.It's really weird.  When I get real bad, I almost feel 
like my soul has left my body and it's observing everything that's happening 
to me from the outside.  That's the only way I can explain it.  When I get 
much below that, I usually don't remember, or maybe I remember bits and 
pieces...Nothing clearly...  Scary!!!  My husband tells me I usually cry 
uncontrollably too, although I don't even remember that most of the time.  I 
feel super foolish and just can't stand it!
