Was OT about hives - now temps bouncing around after Armour increase

January 7, 2008

No, not checking sugar yet. I need to order that thing - something I

spaced out and forgot to do this weekend. What would I be looking for

as an indicator with BS? Too high? I feel hot now, but wearing down

like I had too much energy all day and the deficit is coming. I tried

not to over-do it so I would not crash later. Have a football game to

watch tnite (Go Buckeyes). I raked leaves one weekend when I was

feeling OK and paid for it the day after too. We really can't get

away with anything with these adrenals.

High AM glucose in the fasting state can be in indication of either

illness or high cortiosl. I would say over 110.
