ROFLMAO! Is that going to be your permanent non-sig?

Notice it says *virtually* smirk. How you doing?

Doin' okay. I didn't have to change my meds, after all. My health
insurance was reinstated, so I was able to fill my usual
prescriptions.

That is good to hear.

However, the doc added one that I'd never taken before
and I'm either sleeping or out of it most of the time.

For what?

As far as low-carbing, "What's that?" I'm too wasted on prescription
medications to do much beyond eating dry breakfast cereal. I hope
I'll adjust to this stuff soon.

I hope you're watching your blood sugar carefully.

The good news is, I started the month at 211 and have been holding
steady at 213.5 for at least 2 weeks now. A miracle if you consider
what I've been eating. Maybe it's just a matter of eating small
quantities of the wrong foods. My blood sugar's not what I'd call
good.

But is it acceptable? At least temporarily?

We took a vacation from the health club for two months because of
financial problems, but should be able to exercise again in a week or
two.

I take it your financial problems are starting to get back under
control, yes?

I tried to see the doc on Friday, but I got a cold or virus or
something, and had to cancel.

Why?

So I still have that equilibrium issue
going. And can't hear unless the TV is on full blast, or people on
the phone speak very slowly and distinctly. Maybe getting on
exercise equipment at this point would be stupid. Probably.

Depends on how you feel, of course. No point in making yourself sick.

Well, aren't ya glad you asked? G

Always.

It's anti-psychotic, and it's not working.

I knew it was a mistake to come in here and tell the truth.

I don't know that it was a mistake. You have a problem that you're
working on. It's not your fault - and if people treat you differently
because of it, that's their problem. I know it feels like a mistake...
and maybe, from the point of view that, if you're not in a place where
you can stand up to the fallout from the jerks, it is - but know that
there are still people here who care about you, and who are keeping you
in their thoughts. Including me, despite my own issues.

(Which is to say, I'm crazy, but they won't give me anything for it. :-)

Carol, one of the things I like so much about you is that you're so open and
honest. You tell it like it is and there's nothing wrong with that. You are
a real person with real problems. Like everyone else you don't have all the
answers but darn it, you work hard to find answers and I respect that. I
also like the fact that you cheer everyone on, even when you're having
problems yourself. If anyone has put you down for coming in here and
telling the truth, Nancy is right...that's their problem. You keep up your
good work and don't let anyone get you down! I wish I could give you a real
hug but I'm about 4,000 miles away so this will have to
do...{{{{{{{{{{Carol}}}}}}}}}

Thank you, Em and Nancy. I haven't resubscribed to the group yet, but
I think that will happen fairly soon (posting from Google).

First, I'd like to apologize to Revek for over-reacting to her post.
She cares about me (in the group, in e-mail, and on the phone), and
meant no harm. I was a couple hours late on my meds when I read her
post, and took virtually everything as an attack. I was wrong. I've
been running a little manic for over a week, and paranoia is part of
that joyous state.

Until yesterday (Wednesday), I haven't been low-carbing for some time.
I'll never make this month's Challenge of 206, but I've already won,
because I'm back on track. 206 is just a number. I've regained the
state of mind I need in order to live a healthier life.

You're all such good friends and supporters, and I appreciate everyone
a lot. I'll be back, just not right now. Goin' through some tough
times.

Carol
