so i was having a pretty good day, until i made a mistake. i got up around 1, took morning orkambi, did albuterol, tobi, pulmazyme. i had a nice day, feeling good. around 2 in the morning, i checked my blood glucose, it said "HI" which i know means that it's above 500 as i expected it would be. i wanted to try something. i took 8 units corrective admalog and four units for an energy drink. so i injected 12 units insulin and within seconds, i felt a negative reaction. my energy levels dropped radically, my mood changed, i feel emotionally unstable right now. and my blood glucose is around 170 or so when i checked a few minutes go. i'm dizzy, don't feel well. to try to counteract my mistake, i've eaten two more bananas over the one i had a few hours ago. as if that were not complicated enough, there's something bigger that i need to inspect with my doctor, and that is the viability of going back on trikafta. they way i feel right now is very reminiscent of how my panic attacks have felt, which might mean they were not directly fueled by serotonin syndrome, but by potassium deficit. i don't know that to be the case necessarily, but right now that's how it feels. i won't be using that to be making any large decisions, though. i've done albuterol, i still need to do pulmazyme and tobi. before i go to sleep, i think it would be wise for me to take my morning orkambi, given the timing.
