So after my second Pfizer jab my sugars were lower so had to introduce some carbs to keep them normal. Then the next week they went slightly higher so had to cut back. Then I went back home so had few extras.
Fir the last two weeks I’ve been amazing food wise.
Because it’s been so hot carbs have on some days been about 4g because I’ve not had hot choc.
Then last week noticed I started to take things personally and get upset really quick. Didn’t think anything of it.
Then the same this week.
Very stressful as landlord wants house back so very unexpectedly I now have 4 months to move. So thought quite normal, things getting on top of me, getting irritated quicker etc.
This week energy has been appalling, out it didn’t to the heat. Since diagnosis I cannot cope with heat at all.
By lunchtime I’m flagging and could quite happily lay down and give up for the day. So each day I’ve had a jelly baby to just help,
Then today, really angry at everything. pupil really irritated me so though eff it and had some jelly babies then realised nope you will go backwards.
So stopped. Had more than I wanted but I did stop which is massive improvement.
However, since then my mood has been fine. No more irritation, can see through the wood for the trees and can see what’s happening etc.
honestly, I never ever see it coming, my brain is so blooming sneaky it will do everything it possibly can to make me have sugar and it always works. mid im too tired it affects work so I’ll do anything to cope.
If I’m angry it affects evetyting so I’ll do anything to cope.
I am tired of having to fight sugar withdrawals. Absolutely exhausted. min lockdown it was fine because I was locked in and it was fine.
But trying to manage withdrawal when it was a blooming jab that set it off and I miss the signs everytime. Because it could be anything. There is always a perfectly reasonable explanation for feeling tired or angry.
Anyway, I did stop quicker than usual but I am so sick of sugar withdrawals. Apologies for the rant. I am just at my wits end with this.
