Guest guest Posted December 3, 2003 Report Share Posted December 3, 2003 Create your own journal or file using MS Word or whatever word processer you use. For instance I created a document in MS Word called Bates, where I store such information as: Medication and dose carbohydrate consumed and glucose reading. I can also insert any information I wish in this document. Once you have named the file put a shortcut to it on your desktop. You can also create a hotkey to bring up the file whenever you wish. Look for a message called: advice for Harry to see an example of how I use my word processer file. This might give you some idea. Hope this helps. Have a question > Hello to All > > I need to ask a question or a favor of you. Is there a computer program that I can keep my daily reading on. I like to a better job of keep my records up to date for my doctor but every now and again my glucomitor seems to loose its memory. If ther is such a program that I can use even means me putting in the readings I would sure appreachate it. Thanks. > > Mark > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 8, 2004 Report Share Posted January 8, 2004 I know the feeling. For me, it is mostlikely due to another Condition that I have called Chiari, which in conjuction with Tethered Cord, I have wondered if it can make it worse. This may not be the Case for you, but I just wanted to mention that you might want to have your MRI's looked over again, because many Dr.'s have overlooked Chiari. I'm not by any means saying you have it, just that you might want to look into it more, atleast it wouldn't hurt. Your " theory " does make sense, and I do believe it is true to some degree, but with it being more extreme for you, I wouldn't hesitate to see if something else is going on. Hope that helps.
