I got... stuck... in the game. Ah well, it will happen. Yesterday, pretty much, was a day for no rules. As such, almost as if I had a bit to sip, which I didn't, I have a bit of a type of hangover. It's a bit different but has some key features. It'll pass. Well, and I have upped my insulin to... 40cc's is it? Something. That is making me a bit off. Actually, when discussing diabetes with a friend who also has diabetes, I suggested they compare and contrast hangovers, drinking in general, and diabetes. As a past frequent, and heavy, imbiber, and now as a pseudo diabetic, I have felt things very much in common between the two. Now, they won't. For being spotlessly secular in it's approach, medicine has created it's own set of sins. Among those sins is alcohol abuse, despite a particularly nasty problem in the medical field of drug abuse by practitioners. So, they won't do such studies. Then again, with as poorly as studies are allowed to be run these days, I'm not sure anything they do is worth doing. Still, if a legitimate study could be performed, leaving morality, secular or faithful aside, I think a range of projects in this area could yield great benefits to alcoholics, diabetics, and our understanding of how the body uses fuels and why some fuels are so desperately wanted once found.
Just waking up. I should have a bit of coffee. Don't want to be caught
off guard. Yes, yes, coffee. I saw a nice relaxing scene, then... saw something just a bit off. See if you will notice. Anyway, I thought I would share. Oh, but this sure makes me hungry.

There is something in there. I know, personally, that before they were treating my illness properly, alcohol probably kept me alive. At times it would get to abuse type levels, but addiction did not occur. Which means, I suspect, the alcohol relaxed my heart, and rest my undiagnosed... probably at the time occasional... diabetic symptoms back to normal, somehow. As I have suggested, my diabetes aren't normal, don't track well from what I have heard medical types discuss on the topic. Fluid is the one thing that can alter my numbers, a bit, but by volume, not type. A case of beer flushed everything. But, also, it probably relaxed an overtaxed heart, and maybe did some other things.
No, I don't recommend that medicine. But if the body has a problem, it will see possible solutions, and use them, if the medical field doesn't deal with the problem. Funny how that works, and probably, as I have suggested, part of why I am still alive, nearly 30 years after receiving an illness that, left untreated, has a one to three year life expectancy. But, no, the medical field won't explore areas it considers to be a secular sin, and won't explore medical options that don't make it money. A perfect pair for a hellbound lot. Funny thing is, these are the very people to pour derision on the greedy, the wealthy, and even more so on those who believe more in real morality than their version of a health based morality structure. Oh... right... /rant
Later.
