Sorry, another woe is me post.
I was quite sick on Tuesday with high bms, my fault, yes I know.
On Wednesday I saw my DSN who persuaded me to get fully checked, bloods etc and I was admitted with dka, secondary to a toth absess. Had a ton of IV fluids and antibiotics etc and told I would not be discharged til BMs 'under control' and no ketones. After lunch my BMs were still sitting around 13, despite barely eating and correcting regularly and still 4+ of ketones, but I was allowed home.
Today I have had a small breakfast and lunch, no snacks and BMs still sticking around 13-15. Just done it again, 25.
I know 25 is not abnormal for me, but I have tried bloody hard all day to get them below 10 and its just not happening. I feel so dispondent, what is the point?
