Hi, everyone. I have been in bed with the flu, for almostthree weeks.

Today, I think it is finally over! My bg was the lowest it has been,

durimg that tme. Woke up with 105. During this flu seige, it has

ranged from a high of 179, to about 130. I am just amazed at how muchj

this bug effcted my bg.

The highs were definitely not from eating high carb. I stuck to water,

diet 7up, sugar free jello, chicken broth, and a few crackers. The few

times I tried to eat something more solid, it brought on diarreha.

I never did vomit, just dealt with the runs. I saw my dr. He said rest

and lots of fluids. o, that is what I did. Now, I am craving veggies!

uch to my surprise. But, I am very grateful to be back in touch with

all of you. Please avoud this bug, if possible. Now, I will work on

catching up on reading my email.

Hug, to al who want them,

Sheila

Welcome back, Sheila! I had the URI kind. My doc said my sinuses were " on

fire " and I came close to pneumonia but I didn't get the diarrhea or vomiting

kind. AND I DON'T WANT IT. Luckily, my blood sugars allowed me to drink all

the orange juice I could and that was amazing. I couldn't believe how good it

tasted. I did lost 10 pounds.
