Granny's gone and done it again

Woke up at 2:30, checked blood sugar. 277, YIKES. :eek: Checked it again at 5 a.m. 266. :th Not sure what to do. Google says check for ketones in urine but I don't have a kit. Will have GC pick one up for me today. If ketones present, don't exercise. Depending how high, ER. Probably (hopefully!) not necessary. But ... WTH? And .. how do I fix this? I think Larry said ... eat tuna.


I kinda hate tuna. :oops:
 
At ortho dr yesterday I got shots in both knees. Mmmm, nice. NP or tech or whoever sprayed knee with numbing cold stuff while injecting so I felt no needle, just ... pressure. She says lidocaine in shot gives immediate relief for about 3 days (yes indeed, no pain, thank you! I'll take it!) But then wears off, pain returns (sadness) and then the cortisone kicks in, in a week or two and then we be pain-free again. As for left leg, which does not want to bend at hip/knee so I can't put socks/shoes on, she has set me up to get a guided pain injection at the hospital there in Cape on Jan. 30. So ... the light at the end of the tunnel is Miss Florence Nightingale with her lamp, not a train! :wee
 
Good morning hope y'all are doing well 💕
Just want to each of you a wonderful day ❣️
Take care ❤️

Good morning GrannyLand!

A little hitch in our morning .. DH did not even make it off our 2-mile dirt road to the highway this morning in his marvelous new car when he called me to say he had a completely flat tire. So Melissa and I went to rescue him again. He's headed to work in my car (again) and Melissa and I are sitting here waiting for the tow truck. Woo-hoo! Interestingly, none of the car's tire monitoring alerts work and we were going to get those taken care of ASAP. 🙄
