I have a doctor's appointment on Monday. It's for labwork so I have to fast. My appointment isn't until 2:10 p.m. That means I can't have my morning medication or food until after that. It will be from supper the day before until whenever before I can have food.
I'm aprehensive.
It has been stressed over and over to me since I've been diagnosed with diabetes that I need to eat on a schedule to keep my levels even. The old rule of eating when I am hungry has been thrown out the window. I'm a little scared that my blood sugar reading will be too low or, even worse, too high at the appointment. I'm already stressing about it.
To top it off there still is no electricity at my house. If it doesn't come back on, I guess I might have to cancel since I'm at my parents' without my car. I have no way to get there if I don't get to go back home. That creates another stressor because I want to have my labwork done in December so it is paid completely by insurance since the deductible has already been met. I was told this was the only available appointment in December when I made it because the doctor is taking some time off. My poor planning didn't allow for that. I made the appointment around the first of December. I never dreamed it would be 17 days before I could get in and that would be my only option. I'm new to the world of doctor's visits. I really hate them.
My stress level is a little high anyway. No heat at home. We got another five inches of snow last night. I don't know if that will hinder things or not. My dad has frayed every nerve I have left. I'm putting off testing my blood sugar right now. I know it's going to be high.
I feel like I need a good cry. Truthfully, that only makes me mad at myself. I wish I was better at rising above things that stress me out.
Thanks for listening,
