I am feeling better, that is to say, in spite of feeling worse. While my lower abdomen innards feel knotted and bound, with occasional light side wall muscle spasms, I generally have a better sense to life. Serenity. I don't write the story, not all of it. I can emphasize aspects, when I can. In this case, these are just the facts.
Blood sugar is high. An experiment, this time. Some frozen potato products can be used, some not so much, if volume and frequency play a part. I was testing a brand that can work with a variation of products. It was a total failure. Technically the same carbs, macros really. It's the processing that makes the difference.
With diabetes off because of sleep issues, I decided to experiment. I may have another couple of potential sources of higher blood sugar. I am eating right (other than the experiment, if that only after there was already a problem), if not able to eat as often as suggested... I just can't eat three meals a day. I'll try something else... much smaller meals. Even fatted teas will be reduced to a couple cups, and regular tea will be reduced. Three meals a day is too much? Who knew.
I have reduced the water pill to one a day, as a trial. I will have to reduce liquid intake to make that work. It has already been reduced to get it down to two pills... successfully so far. If my heart is better, I may not need a water pill at all, in time. I couldn't just drop it cold turkey though. I have had to reduce intake, then medicine, in a tiered reduction. As thw water pills have been reduced, potassium was also lowered as advised. There are physiological and real psychological involvements. I think it is working out.
Cats are fed, ducks soon. I may need a nap first? I was down at 4:00 or later, up by 10:00 or so. Trouble sleeping, if the girls were begging for food this morning. I fed them later, their second meal, before bedtime. And they had dry... perhaps it wasn't food? Twerps, but I don't mind. Yeah, a nap. Later.
