i'm going to make a mistake. and i should explain what that mistake is, and why i need to. so, today i've been having trouble breathing. it feels like a weight on my chest, my lungs are rumbling, and i've had a very productive cough today. i recognize these specific symptoms from the first time i went to the ER at UCSF as a product of un-managed blood glucose levels. right now, they're at 370, which is too high. to get it down, i'm going to take 4 units of humalog insulin. i have milk, bananas, and orange juice at hand in case it affects my potassium levels negatively. i think i should also note here that i've been having plenty of carbs today, so technically this is unusually low. today, i've eaten two pop tarts, two packets of instant oatmeal, a bottle of apple cider, two glasses of milk, around 4 cups of orange juice, some banana bread, and probably one or two other things. that my blood glucose is below 500 right now is noteworthy.
