I love the idea of everyone who wants to getting involved! If you have any questions for me on things your curious just comment and I'll make a blog post about it. I want to make this blog a really positive and helpful experience for everyone. Please feel free to ask questions and it'll definitely make it more entertaining to read.
I got asked what some of the symptoms I was experiencing with my diabetes before it was diagnosed.
In my second post I told you how my blood sugar was 500 when I went into the ER which is extremely high. Well, the weeks leading up to it were pretty ordinary I just was always thirsty! I would drink a glass of water and right after I would be thirsty again and needing another glass. If I wasn't drinking something I was thirsty. I was also craving sugar like a mad man. I had SO much juice and treats. It's a surprise that alone didn't give me diabetes. I had a ton of juice and treats. I also had to use the restroom a lot more since I was drinking so much water. It got ridiculous and I was always drinking water or going to the restroom. Then the last few days before I went into the hospital are when it got really bad. I started getting blurry vision, getting light headed and dizzy. It actually got so bad that the few days before I went into the hospital I actually passed out just getting up out of bed. I was walking to let Trixxy out and the next thing you know I was on the ground and she was freaking out wondering what happened.
It was pretty scary having all of this happen but now I can use all of these things as signs for later on. Please just ask if you have any questions I'd be happy to answer them! Night everyone :)

I laughed a lot about Trixxy freaking out that you passed out. I can just picture it, she is almost outside and you just drop. Then she's all over licking your face wondering what the heck you're doing and when she's going to be let out to do her business. So funny! I'm glad she was there for you. :)
Haha I didn't even make it out of my room. I passed out in my doorway. I don't think I was passed out for very long but when I woke up she was just pacing by me and doing her little whimper when she gets excited. It was really funny. :)
