I get out of Intro to Drawing this morning, and I feel like I have a low blood sugar.

So naturally, I get back to my room, and test myself, thinking I'm around 60 or so, since I didn't feel too bad, and I figured I would just test myself, get a cookie and juice, and nap for a bit.

I test myself, and my blood sugar is 33, which is dangerously low.

Breakfast sandwiches aren't all they're cracked up to be...

(Sorry this isn't TEF-related, I just felt like sharing this.).

O.o Keep an eye out for

O.o

Keep an eye out for that...

Funny you bring that up

Funny you bring that up because we had a girl almost faint from low blood-sugar in my drawing class last week. Glad to hear you're ok though, I can't imagine having to go through all that testing and monitoring.

Lex - Yeah, no kidding...I

Lex - Yeah, no kidding...I hate it when that happens. For some reason, my symptoms vary...sometimes, I could be 40 and have double vision, but then be 25, and feel perfectly fine. It's weird honestly.

Tera - D:

I hope the girl was okay...she a diabetic too, or is she just hypoglycemic?

It's a pain, but I gotta do it to survive. That's all there is to it.

quaesting - I am a Type 1, insulin-dependent diabetic. So yes, I am on insulin. Apparently, I misjudged the breakfast sandwich and milk, and overdosed; it doesn't happen very often, but when it does, it sucks.

Yeah she was ok, thankfully,

Yeah she was ok, thankfully, just really embarrassed. She seemed very shy so it must have been hard having everybody's attention on her.
I'm not sure, I didn't want to pry and ask but I think she told the teacher she was diabetic.
