24 hours with sugar level below 100. (99 last night, 95 this morning)
The lettuce growers of America will probably be sending me a Christmas card this year.
Pizza Hut stocks tumbling wildly in last 2 weeks.

Thats great. Are you taking any meds or you using diet to control it?

Great news! Maintain your routines as best you can. I log in every calorie and carbohydrate-gram that enters my mouth daily as part of my Blood Sugar mangement plan. Many of my recipes have now been qualified and quantified. Its a major PITA, but it makes for easier Blood Sugar Management ultimately. I am also curious if you are on oral form, insulin, and/or diet management for sugar control? Whatever you are doing keep doing it

1000mg Metformin per day, plus a diet that...well....If I did it by choice, they'd call it anorexia

Thanks for the information. I can relate to the anorexic diet planlike us
Metformin has nearly NO side effects for most people, but those who do suffer, can't stand the thought of taking it. It took me all pof 48 hours to adjsut to taking it. The only side effect I'm having now is
FEELING ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL

Yep! I get a certain enjoyment out of wearing them out myself
Told the Mrs. last night if I managed to lose 50 lbs, I was buying a pair of Speedos. I think she's planning on fixing lasagna every night this week now

I would go over and visit Mom and Dad. Dad, 87 years young, had blue jeans with holes in them.

That's my dad all over again! He died with the family thinking he was about broke. We found out 6 months later he had over a million dollars in the bank, in addition to owning a piece of land worth well over that figure. He made a few wise investments through the years, but his "depression mentality" wouldn't let him SPEND any of it.
He had several pairs of bib overalls that were patched with duct tape.
I'd get him a new pair and he'd put them in the closet and "save 'em for when I need them".

D-Day -0300 hrs. I'm sitting here watching the county road dept lay salt on our road. About 1/2" of powder fell last night. The hill in front of the house is slick. Appointmentwith urologist is in 3 hours. I have to be there 45 minutes early to fill out more paperwork. Doubtful I'll learn much today. It usually takes a few days for them to disseminate the test results.
Thanks everyone. Thanks for the support and encouragement. This may turn out to be nothing more than one of life's speed bumps. But for someone who's been for the most part healthy all his life, this isn't an easy time.
Gotta go walk the dogs and get the mail.

Hey...I RESEMBLE that remark...
Like my Dad and my Dad's Dad taught me...
JUST BECAUSE YOU HAVE MONEY does NOT mean you have to SPEND IT...
Heck, I'm still wearing T-Shirts from The Washington Rugby Club Tournaments we held back in the 80's...
