Not Throwing Up

I did not throw up today!

Tired of waiting for my turn to rush to the bathroom to dump my breakfast, I decided to move around and sweat it out with some morning exercises. Stretching then shadow boxing to raise my heart rate, some push ups and a good stroll around the garden - these made me busy until it was over two hours since I drank those dastardly red tablets that made my mornings utterly miserable. Since I can't do away with them, I figured a way to work with them. - Getting my body warm and some food every hour in the morning. Hahaha .... works well with my diabetes too.

Oh well, we get our buzz where we can :)

Orange Pee

The quadtab turns my pee into reddish orange. Everytime I take a pee, I feel like a softdrink dispenser. If only I can charge for this. Hmmm

Blissful blindside - NOT!

So we all know I am diabetic. Been so since ... 2001? Being a research hog that I am, it took me no time to understand just what elevated blood sugar means. Simply said, things can get messy. Diabetic complications maim and/or kill people ... eventually! I emphasize "eventually" because the decay is never abrupt. Rather, it is a string of deteriorating effects with sad stories attached to each one. Sad mostly because for the most part, many of these tragedies are avoidable.

Oh well.

From the other end of the episode reads the causes of Pulmonary Tuberculosis (PTB) - infection sets in at the onset of Diabetes Mellitus, or generally during a state of a weakened immune system. Diabetes weakens the immune system.

Tadah!

Now my story begins ...

SO stop reading now ..this will be depressing. I only intend this to be my personal waste bin. Hehehe
