Middle of the night update: My legs were hurting so bad I had to beg for extra pain meds. Luckily. the doctor had prescribed some. Other bad stuff going on with my bladder not acting right (which means I have to call urologist ASAP in case it is RCC related) I slept for a couple hours in the early evening, then a couple more from midnight on. Got back up at 3:30 and body is refusing sleep. Still waiting on cultures, but if they are good I should be able to go home and just handle everything else with my various doctors: urologist, pain management, wound care, PCP, foot doctor, and endocrinologist. Im in search of a PCP that can hanclle all my issues and coordinate with other doctors so I am not taking the same blood work over and over again. It looks like I am no longer in the diabetic honeymoon period and my pancreas is not producing much insulin. Even on the high scale of insulin to carbs, my blood sugar hasnt gone below 230 since I got here, highest was almost 400. This is on a low carb diet the doctor prescribed. Even fasting my AM blood sugars have been abnormally high. I can take care of most things prior to the June CT scan to determine if the nodules are metastatic disease are not. So, long story short: everything is acting up at once, diabetes have gotten much worse, other illnesses need better care (Hashimotos, PCOS, Fibro, the bone and muscle issues, cancer, lymphedema, and even the small stuff like the eczema (as open spots allow in bacteria. ) Having a poor immune system is tough sometimes, especially when the health problems roll one after another, shingles, then the bad virus with high temps, now the infections in both legs. I can fight it, I will get better and Ill be back to torment our town council soon!
