I love health fairs! My students participate in some each year. Doing the tests and talking with people is really good practice for them.

My blood pressure is pretty good thanks to all the meds that I take for it. It's my blood sugar that has me worried. It's been running high. I don't think that they'll check for that though. I'll wait two or three weeks and if they don't call for me to come in then I'll just get an appointment and go in any way. I need to get an A1C to see how my blood sugar's been averaging. I don't think it will be good.

Diana, don't be afraid to get your A1C tested, you probably just need a little medication adjustment! It does need to be done though, becasue if your blood sugar average is high, then there is damage being done to your micro blood vessels, e.g., the eyes and kidneys, and you DON'T want that to happen. They will likely just make a medication change, but it needs to be done NOW. Don't wait!!!

I know and I'll get it done soon. I just hate going to the doctor.....especially for diabetes problems and I have a doctor that I really like. I've been testing a little more than usual so I've been more aware of my levels.
