Yep, they were gone the first day I really loved them. I haven't tried the peaches though. I have an apple I have a tangerine. And I have pomegranate juice but that's not going to bring me luck cuz it's not pomegranate seeds but it is supposed to be good for me. I can't really drink more than a few sips and I put ice water or ice cubes with it to thin it out even more. Wonder if there are any donut stores open tomorrow?

Miscreant said the doughnut section at the grocery store was about empty. Guess it was all the last minute buying for the college students.
Have you tried putting some of it in some carbonated water? I like a splash of orange juice in my mandarin flavored carbonated water. I've mostly been drinking electrolyte water the last couple of days.

No I haven't tried that

I like soda too much & was drinking more of it than I should have been. Wal-Mart has a line of canned beverages called Clear, they are carbonated flavored waters. They are zero calorie and taste good and are keeping me from drinking a lot of soda.

they are so sweet though *gags*

I don't think these are that sweet and a lot of the time I water them down with either plain water or add some no sugar added juice.

Wal*marts, to me, are overly artificially sweetened

Wow I was incredibly low earlier. This time I really felt it coming on and I ate my little tangerine and waited and felt a little bit better. But it just kept dropping I don't know why. I was only sixty-seven. Boys did I feel bad

I was worried about you. Mine is normally too high and yours seems to run too low. I hope you are feeling better now. We didn't stay long at my parents house Mom got mad at me & I just wasn't in the mood to deal with it. Miscreant said I sounded mean to her, but I don't have much of a voice and was tired of trying to talk over things like the television.

She changed the time we were supposed to eat. So our carrots and potatoes weren't cooked long enough for me. We never did get amu black eyed peas because they where still hard as rocks when we left. Guess I will have some lentil soup with some of the ham for dinner. Miscreant put the ham and vegetables back on to cook. The ham was good, but it hadn't cooked enough to get all of the good flavors from the fruit and vegetables.
Adder never showed up and his girlfriend had to work today.

i had to just sit and breath. the tangerine didn't help much at all.
only got me to seventy-two. so i madde some toast and buttered it.
i read butteered bread was a New Years thing. that helped a bit.
but i still felt 'off' so i just laid down for a little bit.
i'm a little dehydeated now but feel better.
i need to eat =( crap way to start 2018.

don't worry about if you sounded mean.
patience is low after being so sick.
it would be nice to be pampered

I had another low blood glucose later
another sixty-seven so I am thinking my meter is broken.
nope, it went fown to sixty-six! but I got it up to
eighty-seven, finally.for your information:
do not eat a tangerine~drink for quick
rise in your levels, whew scary.

hope you have a great day

okay enough time passed in between posts

Sorry I haven't been around today. Sounds like we both have started the year off badly The swelling/edema got worse. Internal medicine specialist doesn't come back to work until tomorrow so his nurse said to go to the ER. We spent most of the day there. I had gained another 9 pounds of fluid since Friday. Now I'm bruised up from the IV and my veins running away from the needle. I have to go back to the hospital tomorrow so they can do the ultrasound and the perasintises (however you spell it), so they can drain the fluid off. It has gotten harder to breath with so much fluid filling up my stomach cavity & pushing on my lungs. I will be happy to have it done. I want this fluid gone and will fill better when it is gone.

do they know what is causing it?
we sure haven't started it well
have we? feel better soon!

I'm about ready to go to sleep. I just feel drained. One of the nurses was worried about my blood pressure, she checked it twice. Even after being in the ER waiting room for a while my blood pressure was 105/60.
Miscreant took me to Denny's to get some soup because I was so low by the time we got out. The soup was good, but the fries needed to cook more for my taste.

'sleepy blink' hey Damia..and aww you gots a teddy in your spot under your name that's so cute..

Aw, very cute

happy january third in the year of our Lord 2018

ugg i wanna go climb into bed, cover up with the heavy blanket, and go to sleep 'nods'

Hello everyone.
How cold is it where you are Star?
I just want to stay in bed all the time lately. I feel so drained.

Hummy ~ Sadly they still don't know what is wrong with me. :(

Could it be what was wrong last time

Let's hope not. Plus she isn't throwing up blood which is a good thing the last time it was because the veins in her esophagus were bleeding. I don't want her going through that again. all her labs came back good so its strange when the esophagus was bleeding her iron levels dropped low

that's good about not throwing up blood. I would have freaked out too!
what time does she see the specialist tomorrow?

Woo, my little one managed to get a set of event items :)

good job!
