He's not as upset about it now

So last week Joel got a continuous glucose monitor. He wasn't very happy about it. He's not a fan of doctors to begin with. But it really saved us this weekend. Saturday we were going out and he drank what we thought was a regular drink but it was sugar free. He ate a very light breakfast because we were going out for lunch.

Being on the bike, in the sun really made his blood sugar drop fast, but he had it hooked to his watch and we stopped at a gas station to get him a drink with sugar. If he didn't have that monitor he might not of felt any symptoms until it was really bad. That would of been horrible if it happened while he was driving us. I'm so glad he got it.

@Justmeraeagain yes and he did but we didn't realize the drink was sugar free. So that's why it dropped so fast

@Cigarguy oh ,I see, I get it
I have to drink the sugar-free, but he probably has to be careful the other way around

@Justmeraeagain he usually drinks green tea and honey during the week but we didn't have any on our trip. I'll have to bring some next time

Yeah, he might have passed out without any warning. Thank God for the glucose meter!!!
Cigarguy · M
@4meAndyou yep mostly because we didn't realize his drink was sugar free

Saved him from passing out eh?
Cigarguy · M
@YoMomma yes it let him know it was dropping so he didn't get close to that point.
