[QUOTE="Antje77, post: 2447721, member: 372207"] [USER=545952]@Widgets[/USER] story made me think of a very odd occasion where my BG's weren't affected, to the point I almost felt offended by diabetes not being impressed at all by my suffering. :hilarious: A year ago or so (or maybe two years?) I had a sore arm. Not just any sore arm but a Sore Arm, which caused me to live from painkiller to painkiller, waking up crying from the pain every time when it was still an hour to my next one, and not daring to move at all because even though it was my right arm, moving my left toe was enough to start agony again, you get the gist. (Never found out what it was by the way, despite ultrasounds and x-rays and stuff, but it went away by itself.) The oddest thing was that my BG's were perfectly fine and predictable all the time this was going on! I don't remember how long it took, but it was at least ten days. Good thing diabetes wasn't much work of course, especially as testing and injecting one-handedly isn't easy, but I still felt somewhat ignored. I mean, diabetes could at least have acknowledged things weren't right. It reacts to absolutely everything, and then nothing when you're in so much pain you want to just get rid of your own arm! Yes, convenient but offending! [/QUOTE]
