I too hope Gary's blood sugar can get controlled better. Seems just when one things gets in order....something else happens huh Gayle? Guess life would be pretty dull if it didn't, but I've had enough excitement....how about you?

It doesn't ever end, does it? I hope his sugar regulates right away! I'm sure you will take good care of him, but some peace and quiet would be so nice for both of you!
Hope he feels better!

I have somehow missed so many posts... this being one of them.
How is Gary's blood sugar now? What did it get up to? Gary is like Mike... he's fine for awhile and then it's one thing after another

No, it isn't any better Betsi. They changed his insulin but it didn't help. We are going to have to change his carb to insulin ratio in his insulin pump. He is currently at 1 unit for every 8 carbs. That's going to have to come down to 7 or maybe even 6. He seems to run high from breakfast to supper, then a little better (but still high) from supper to bedtime. I'm thinking he needs a 1:6 ratio from 8AM to 5PM and then 1:7 till midnight. He has an appointment next Tuesday with the endocrinologist - so they will change it then.
How is Mike's blood sugar doing?

Crap. I was hoping Gary was straightened out! Surely the ratio change will help.
At one time today, Mike's was 260. He just can't understand why... uh, maybe it's his diet, or LACK of! He says he takes his insulin like he's supposed to, but I'm pretty sure he doesn't. He has to be off his Janumet for 3 days before his cath because it interferes with the dye, so I'm sure it will get worse before it gets better. Can you tell I'm a little aggravated? I know it's not his fault, but dang it, that bowl of ice cream is!!
