Guest guest Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 You're good, Harry skipping all those good things! I h ope I am as strong as you on the cruise I am going on today. It is a short cruise-3 days-so maybe I won't do too badly! they assured me they have a lot of choices for diabetics on their menu. Catch up with you all on Monday. Re: advice for Harry I had beef stir fry with all those vegetables. I skipped the egg roll, rice and hot and sour soup.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2003 Report Share Posted December 6, 2003 nice! good job Harry! See that... you can eat Chinese if you get rid of the carbs out of the meal. You get the taste without the carbs *smile*.

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2003 Report Share Posted December 17, 2003 strange readings Harry. If it continues another day, check your insulin that it is ok and make certain you aren't fighting any type of infection such as a slight cold etc. regards, Re: advice for Harry > 12/16/2003 > > Last night: > > G 111 > > Lantus increased to 27 units > > Breakfast today: > > G 126 > > C 15 > > H 12 > > Almost Two hours post breakfast:' > > G 142 > > Lunch: > > G 113 > > C 15 > > H 13 > > Two hours post lunch: > > G not taken > > Ate some nuts > > Supper: > > G 128 > > C 15 > > H 13 > > Two and a half hours post supper: > > G 77 > > Lantus 27 > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 21, 2003 Report Share Posted December 21, 2003 not bad for missing lantus. However, I wouldn't want to try that missing lantus routine for more than one day LOL just kidding. Good job keeping the sugars down. BTW set yourself an alarm on your watch, your bedroom clock, in the kitchen on a talking clock, whatever you have to do to hear an alarm that says take lantus. I think that is the second time you missed lantus in about 3 months. I have alarms on my watch set for taking 8 AM dose of insulin and an alarm set for 8 PM dose of insulin. Without those, I would never recall to take the insulin ... I am always on the computer working/programming and engrossed.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2003 Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 Now make that a third time for missing Lantus, and I agree that I don't believe it would be wise to miss the Lantus dose more than one day at a time, but if one has their glucose levels under control, missing a day of Lantus does not cause disasterous results. I think a diabetic is going to have to become like a private pilot. He always goes through his checklist before he takes off from the airport. Since I pilot this ship called this body of mine, I had better develop a checklist of essentials for my control and survival. For instance one should have on hand a minimum of four days of medication available at all times and this would also include syringes and needles and alcohol wipes. I would also recommend that when going on a trip the necessary supplies for each day are carried plus an extra week of needed medications, since one never knows what will happen on a trip or when one will be returning for sure. Oh yeah, and for sure be sure to have the checklist available for checking off the essentials before departing. So I am going to get right on making up a checklist of essentials right now, and if you have further suggestions, please advise. I like your idea for setting an alarm clock for taking your Lantus, since I sometimes forget to take it at a specific time and I have been as late as three hours in taking my dose of Lantus at the usual time I take at night around 9:30PM.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2003 Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 Harry, the one thing I do is actually use a reminder program to set reminders for things I have to do. Bare in mind, I program for a living so am on the computer all the time. At least 12 hours a day minimum. So, I am engrossed in projects at my full time job and also engrossed in projects with my business from home. I use my Day by Day Pro software to set pop up reminders for pre meal checks, 2 hour post checks, when to take insulin, and even when leaving for trips I pop up a reminder 3 days prior to me leaving listing the things I have to bring with me and keep making it reappear each day until I accept it. I guess I am saying, if you are on the computer a lot during the day, use any type of reminder software to help you remember to do diabetic related stuff. In my life, it proves essential. If you don't use the computer that much, then get a wrist watch that lets you set up to 4 alarms. The watch I have lets me set 4 alarms so I can set one for 8 am dose, 8 pm dose, and the other two for whatever else I need reminded to do. regards, Re: advice for Harry > > > > not bad for missing lantus.
