Was going to write what a great day I was having (as a diabetic). Woke up this morning to an admirably low fasting blood glucose level of 78 mg/dl. Lunchtime, did an intense workout at the gym including a 40 minute cardio elliptical trainer session that burned 1305 calories, and 10 weight/strength machines, including a total of 75 abdominal crunches done using 2 different machines. Then I went for a whirlpool. Got out, walked naked to the basin area of the Mens locker room to fetch my water bottle, and apparently passed out. Woke up on the floor, surrounded by people, including the Front Desk Girl (YES! in the Mens locker room!), and momentarily were joined by MFD paramedics and a Mercy Flight Ambulance crew. The EMTs took my blood pressure (=normal), tested my blood glucose (100 mg/dl =normal), checked my mental state (What day is it? Saturday, Who is President? Still Obama, unfortunately) and couldnt find anything wrong, but of course wanted to transport me to a hospital, which I politely but firmly refused. Showered, dressed, and came home.
