Too little sleep.

A side effect of the glucose tabs was a sudden spring in my step.  The stuff woke me.  As well, I became terribly hungry?  Very strange, but well worth the effect... pretty much an immediate cessation of the symptoms of falling blood sugar.  I used the recommended four tabs.

Next time I will try two tabs, as well a bit of food.  I wasn't expecting the hunger, so wasn't braced against it.  I will be next time, if willpower isn't always a perfect defense against powerful natural ebbs and flows.  Blood sugar jumped a hundred points exactly.  I believe that was mostly the tabs.  Oh, it is a lower blood sugar, and what I am eating, which makes 70 ~ 75 F even feel frigid.  The tabs warmed me right up.  Fasting blood sugar has come down to 164.  Not perfect, but a start.

I did eventually get a call to my mother, but just a scant few words on her way into work, yesterday?  She called just a bit before I woke today, so I called her back.  Happily we connected without too much rush.  She is better, but the shingles will leave a mark.  Behind her eye isn't hurting any more.  Now she knows what a demon that illness is.  I still would rather she had taken my word for it.  But you know women!

Kidneys feel less inflamed, but that comes and goes.  Still not regular.  I ate a whole cabbage the other day!  And bowls of chia and flax.  Something bound up in there.  Perhaps not enough fat?  I haven't been doing fatted teas or coffees.  I have been cutting calories as well, generally speaking.

Oh, my aunt wanted me to have her new number, part of why my mother called.  I... had best take a hint.  Not today.  But since I am awake I will hit a few things.  I feel like death, not even warmed over, if at least not so frigid even with the cave having dropped to 70, at the time I woke.  The carbs, they warm.

A fatted coffee shortly, medicine and cold tea, then a shower as tea brews.  Later.
