After feeding the kids lunch yesterday, I started to feel a little bit off. I hadn’t eaten lunch yet. I was sipping on a diet coke and all of a sudden my fingers felt funny, like I couldn’t hold the phone. I put it down and sat down at the table. Well, it just got worse from there. I started seeing floaters across my eyes, was sweating and my head felt very fuzzy.

I asked my middle daughter to get my glucometer, after I calmed my self down. I checked my first finger, 540. Are you kidding me??? No, I thought, “it can’t be”! I had my daughter check 5 more fingers. Yup, it was true. Well, “I guess that would explain the fuzziness”.

So, I called my hubby and hysterically explained the situation. He calmed me down and said he would be leaving work very soon. I put the cordless phone next to my daughter and wrote the number 911 on a piece of paper and told her if mommy went to sleep and couldn’t wake up to call that number for some help. Thank goodness she is a very smart 4 1/2 year old!!

My hubby was home within a half an hour and my daughter didn’t need to use the ol’ 911. But it did take at least 5 hours for my blood sugar to come below 300. Scary stuff! I made an appointment with the doctor for Friday AM and hope that I don’t need to visit the ER before that.

I have no idea what happened or why my body has decided to rebel against me. We will see what the future holds. It is very scary though, especially when you know too much.
