Ate Until I’m Blind

Blurred Vision

Woke up this morning blind. Well close to it. I think I had too much fun yesterday but it was pretty mild fun. I had probably four beers, maybe five over six to eight hours. Had some pizza, okay way too much pizzza and some susauge that wasn’t all that great but only because I prefer mine cooked more than most people do. I also had one big of fat cigar which I paid P100 for which is a lot of money. Oh, I get to be a rich guy once a week. :) Well pretend anyway. It gives me a better buzz than the beer. Though mild vices, I guess they are more than my body can handle well. Waking up blind is a bad sign. LOL

Muscle Pain Revisited

Muscle Pain Vs. Norgesic Forte

I was fearful of the change from cyclobenzaprine to Norgesic Forte. Now that I’ve made the change, I’m very hopeful. Within 24 hours all the pain in my calve muscles were gone. All the pain in my face and most my shoulder pain is gone as well.

I’ve been dealing with pain in these areas since my teens. Lupus could be the cause, diabetes can be part of the muscle pain as well. Now, I have diagnosed myself with Scleroderma and that is even more likely to be related to my muscle pain. I’ll get a second opinion from my doctor next month. :)

Blood Sugar High, Then Blood Sugar Low

This morning, I was feeling bad so I took my blood sugar and it was over 350. What the heck? Where did that come from? Since I have been taking lower doses of my oral meds than what was prescribed, I took some of the missed dosages for today. Just two pills. A few hours later I thought i had drank too much caffeine and was going for some xanax only to realize that it wasn’t nerves, my sugar was bad, really bad. It was at 60 which isn’t horrible but it felt horrible and considering the amount of sugar I had to take in to get it back up to only 93 it was a major crash. I just got on it quickly. So it went from 350+ to 60 in about six hours. I didn’t walk before the blood sugar crash either.

My blood sugar crashed again last night. I’m having a hard time getting it back to right. I probably tried to change too much too fast. I stopped taking two medications…
