Sugar, ah enemy, enemy... you are my one real foe and I want to battle you...

When I first started taking insulin, I hated it and could not wait until they put me back on an oral medication.
Now, I realize from that experience that the insulin did the best job controlling my sugar levels and keeping them steady.
I have an appointment with my endocrinologist next week.
She has been reluctant to put me back on insulin; let's hope she'll listen this time.
My sugars are all over the place a combination of stress, eating where I could in the last month, the new medication having to be taken 3 times a day before each meal (me sometimes forgetting when out to do so), and skipping daily exercise.
I have managed to go back on diet and resume my daily exercise.
As long as I am home for meals, I am remembering my medication, now.
Stress, I can only do so much about.
It really hasn't changed much my sugar levels continue to be erratic despite the effort.

Girl, go keto!!!! I was diagnosed T2 in April 2021, by July of 21 I was at pre-diabetic levels and by Jan 22, I was at normal levels.
My doctor recently removed diabetes from my current medical chart.
It works!

@VisionQuest Happy for those who can do that,
I got sick, so I went to a moderate-carb diet.
I feel better when I stick to that, but I just lost my husband and haven't been doing so well sticking to it, just recently started back.

You have been through so much the past couple of months. It's amazing you have been able to do as well as you have. Now with everything settling back down hopefully you can get back into the routine or eating better and getting daily exercise. Wishing you all the best 🙏🙏🙏

@Justmeraeagain We have barely used our motorhome the past two years because of this. Mainly we have used it for hurricane evacuations. That's why this fall and next spring I would like to have a couple of really nice trips. See parts of the country we have never seen before.

@Musicman The upper peninsula of MI is quite beautiful in the autumn.

@Levenrack Here's hoping the doc will give me the tools to do so.
