I just need to rant and whine. Nothing seems to be going right. I am VLCHF (less than 20 gram per day) and yet I can't seem to get my sugars in line. I take my meds (metformin er and forxiga). I am barely eating anything any more and yet not losing weight. I landed in the hospital a week ago so dehydrated with diarrhea that I needed IV rehydration and sodium. Apparently it was the metformin. (just switched to er) I feel tired, I feel sick, my body hurts and I just want to cry. I just did a bit of sorting and tidying and my sugars shot from 6.4 to 8.7 , so much for exercise. My thyroid is swollen, apparently no one thinks that is an issue and they will get around to doing an ultrasound eventually. My joints hurt from severe psoriatic arthritis and my CRP is 33 which is insanely high inflammation. "Oh well I have aches and pains too (my hubby) wanna have some fun?" Umm no. Oh so now I am a B**** too. I feel like crawling into a corner and pulling a blanket over my head and crying. No point in going to bed as I don't sleep well. I have been told I should go back to work as I look fine. I have been told that it is not acceptable to be sad or in a bad mood although I should smile and tolerate other peoples moods. I have been waiting over two months for an endo appointment and have not even gotten a phone call to say heres an appointment in 6 months time. I feel like no one gives a s***. OK rant over, I really don't have any questions. Thanks for listening.
