Every time I think I've got this T2 thing down, something throws a wrench in. I'm doing keto and IF, hover between 10 to 20 grams of carbs a day... And on Monday my fasting bs was 9.4. Considering the amount of pain I was in I figured it was an infection and went to the GP; diverticulitis. Wonderful. So I fasted extra to give my intestine some r&r, and wahey, suddenly I'm 3.6 just before dinnertime. And since 2 days I seem to have developed a bladder- or urinary tract infection as well. Dropping sample off at the doc's today. Fasting bs was 6.2 just now, normally it's 5-something-or-other.
My finger finally got back to its normal, non-calloused self. Now it's back to being rough and a little red. I'm okay with my diabetes most days, we've gotten friendly and I know what's going on most of the time. Just hate that it's all awry now, bouncing all over the place. Feels a little like a betrayal, you know? Worked hard to stay in the 4-5-(6) range, and now this. Urgh.
