Burnout. - Emma.

So, every once in a while, I get burned out. Not so much burned out from testing, bolusing, etc. Burned out from feeling high, feeling low, waiting for the five second meter countdown which feels like an eternity just to confirm what I already knew: what I did didn't work out. Again.

My sugars have been all over the place this week, and I'm just trying to forget about the impact all the highs in the 300s are going to have had on my A1C. I'm exhausted, from being low all night and having to stay up eating menthos, although, I'm sure anyone without D wouldn't see the problem in that. (;

I guess I've been reminiscing too much over the days when I didn't have to think about all this, only a couple of years ago. I remember it all too well really.

Anyway, today I'm feeling fluey, which could explain the highs. Either that, or the highs are making me feel fluey... Who knows? Although my sugars have been far better today than yesterday, so that wouldn't make much sense. Nothing ever seems to...

Hoping for a better day tomorrow! I guess I'll just take it as it comes, and stop feeling like the numbers are a report card which I have any control over.

I think it's normal to get that burned out feeling every so often. I wish I had a magic answer for you. All I can say is hang in there, I know how you feel, and I'll be sending happy thoughts your way.
