Been getting behind on these. Fortunately, I don't post on any kind of schedule.
A couple months ago I started using "Bydurion" for my diabetes control.
HA
"control" in name only. The WORST numbers I've had, other than totally uncontrolled. Usually 180's or 190's.
I also felt really hungry on it. I gained 7 pounds back. Very unhappy making. It also left lumps under my skin. The internet says that they should go away in about 4 weeks at worst. Dunno if I believe it, since I can still feel 6 of them, definitely. And it's been about 3 weeks since the last dose I took. Which means I should only be able to feel like 2 of them. And they hurt and itched. All in all, a nope. I'm usually pretty good about taking my meds, but I didn't want to take this one.
I started the Ozempic this Thursday, and my numbers are slowly getting better. 160 something yesterday, and 153 this morning. I'm also trying REALLY hard to count carbs better. Might be cutting back a bit too much, I had a slight low this morning, and I had a fruit cup to balance out a bit. Fish with pasta for dinner. I just ate that. (6ish)
I've started the 4 appointment diabetes education classes set, finally. I'm gonna be using a CGM. One that I can use with my phone. I picked the Libre 2, I think. I will be learning how to use it on the 9th.
I've started walking again, after my back spazz. Taken three walks, in the last 4 days. Might have been why I went low today, now that I think about it.
Hoping to lose the 7, then more. I really want to see 179. :D
That's about it for now. I'll probably post after I learn how to use the libre.
