Jamie, I hope you have some support, too - this is hard on you. Big change.
Does the Diabetic Society or whoever they might be have information for partners of people who are newly diagnosed?
I hope you have been getting some attention too - of course, Lori needed the emergency and critical care.
Just take care, ok?
And we'll be here whenever Lori is ready to come back.
HUGS!

Hi all im home,My eyesite is not well so bare with me. I want to thank you all for your love and prayers it really does mean alot to me.I have been to hell and back these past few weeks,and it feels great to be home again i can now get on with my life.It is shocking being diagnosed with diabetes,but i figured at some point in my life i would have it my hole family pretty well are diabetic.
My sugars are alright was 13 this morning and was 13 before lunch also.One good thing is im not taking the needles i have what they call a pen,im on humalog 4 times a day,Breakfast,Lunch Supper,then before bed,Then have to take Lantas,6 units when i get up and 14 before bed it is alot to get used to getting pretty overwhelming i have to count all the carbs i eat and take the insuling for it.
I'll be around on and off if anyone wants to chat im me and ill give you my msn i usually always have that on unless my daughter is on the computer.
Thanks again for all the thoughts and prayers you all have a special place in my heart
Love and hugs
Lori

HUGS, Lori...hope this new and overwhelming stuff will become routine for you, like brushing your teeth.
Maybe there will be different levels of meds as your sugars settle?
Hope you feel more settled soon!

I am going to see a Endocrinology specialist,She is the one that will determine how much insulin i will need,I sure hope after i adjust to things i can cut back on the insulin my stomach is sure getting sore,My arms are real tender,And i cant give it to myself it is too awkward so i have been injecting my stomach and thighs...my fingers are sure sore too i ball my eyes out everytime i have to do it i have never enjoyed needles,it is even harded having to give them to yourself rather then someone else doing it,Jamie has been great i do not know what i would do withought him he is amazing.
WELCOME HOME! I'm sorry you have such a huge adjustment and lifetime change, but thank GOD you caught it in time!!! I was diagnosed with type II about 2.5 years ago and it floored me as well! You are having to take much more medication than I am, so I can imagine how overwhelmed you must be right now. I'm not sure if you use the pen to test on your fingers, but if you do, be sure you have it on the lightest setting! It barely even touches you and hurts MUCH less than a higher setting! You adjust the pressure by twisting the end .... smaller dots, less pressure. Oh, also be sure to use a new needle each time ... a dull needle hurts worse!
Please check in when you feel like it and let us all help you get through these times of change for you!
Hugs,
Kim

Thank goodness things are under more control for you, and that you are *home*!!! The few times I have been hospitalized as an adult, I spend time arguing "I'd get better faster at home!" until they let me go. (It has been when I got a cold that sunk to my chest and kicked in with the asthma - never good.)
