Sort of hopeful.
My meds have been reduced, due to having lost weight. The BP med stopped completely, one of my oral diabetes meds lessened.
The frustrating thing is apparently I qualify now for the on the body sensor for glucose monitoring, but my phone is so old it won't run the app for it. This is the 2nd medical app that won't run on this phone. (I also can't get many apps for general purposes). A new phone isn't in the budget, so I am not sure whether to just buy it on credit or what.

I'm Ok. I've woken up glad it's Friday. Knocked myself out with Pregabalin - works, though gotta be careful. It might explain my calmer mood. Laptop is working like new but have to go through BIOS update with this support person, then off to office for some late in the week client review meetings and calls. Feel glad it's Friday. Just need all the stress to stop. My weekend routine is a bit messed up as there's a surprise party for someone's birthday I'm being dragged along to, but I should get my Saturday afternoon at least, then Sunday.
Just don't want any more nasty surprises.

i just started on dexcon 7 continuous glucose monitoring a few months ago. i also couldn't get it on my phone at first until my old phone died, but you can get a montoring device to use instead of your phone.
my biggest problem was getting it to stay on. my nurse told me to use a medical tacky spray and over patches. so at first a real pain in the ass lol. i fought it but now i am very happy with it. it also helps with my weight, i think twice if my glucose is high so i'm eating less. feel free to inbox me if you want to talk about it

I feel absolutely bloody fantastic. Probably because it's Friday, most of the shit is done with, I've put some difficult things to bed and I have a fully functioning laptop again without having to send it for a repair. I've still got two big endings coming up and some other stresses. but will tackle them one at a time. For now I've come full circle. Don't know what I'd have done/what I'd do without this place to vent!
