Joyce, I am so happy the surgery is over!  We know our body's vbetter the
medical text books.  Not everyone reacts the way the medical books think she
should.  Take care of yourself, now.

Is recover from this hand surgery.  Yep, I had it done today.  I did do a
little tricky fibbing, but it worked and I am glad I did it.

My blood sugar was perfecvt, but the last time I went that perfect 92
according to their glucose monitor machine read 57.  So this morning my
sugar was 80 and I really was nervous they would send me home again.  I was
only suppose to take my blood pressure medications and my inhalers for my
asthma.  They only said to take a mouthful of water to get the pills down.
I did all of that and then I have these large tablets for when I have an
insulin reaction.  They kind of dissolve in your mouth and suppose to raise
your blood sugar by 50.  I I ate one of them.  When I got to the hospital my
son was a little pushy and told them to check my blood sugar first.  They
did and it was 127.  The pill did a great job, I never told them I took it
and they did the surgery.Post Op my blood sugar was 195 and by the time I
got home which was like 12 noon I felt it was high.  Well I tested it and it
was HIGH.  When it says High that means it is over 600.  They had given me 2
English muffins with butter and jelly and apple juice.  I took some
scrambled eggs and 18 units of fast acting insulin and by  5 PM my blood
sugar was back down to 120  and sstayed around that the rest of the night.
I have been a brittle diabetic for 57 years and things bounce like this all
the time.  I am sure nerves pushed it up mid day.

Joyce
