133 AM blood 29 August 2017

Kathie cooked steak last night on the grill she loves. It did not seem too greasy and I cut out a lot of fat. After dinner, I went to see a strange but enjoyable movie ("Dark Tower"). There, I had nachos and cheese and a small glass of "Diet Pepsi".

After I returned home, I drank some water. I also had an asmtha attack and found relief in both nose sprays.

I was in bed maybe an hour and started having a coughing fit. I didn't let myself think of why I was really coughing. I went to the bathroom, peed and thought I was going to vomit. I refused to induce vomiting. I went back to bed.

About a half hour later, I sat up in bed and had another coughing fit. Then, I watched myself desperately put on my crocs and ran to the toilet. I got the lid up before I projectile vomited twice and then had a couple more minor vometing episodes.

I went back to bed and it took a while to get back to sleep. I had dry mouth and figured I was simply dehydrated. I didn't have the ambition to go get a glass of water and actually sleep the rest of the night.

When I checked my blood sugar first thing this morning, it was much higher than I thought. This is a sign of illness.

    There are times when diabetes simply puzzles me. My evening meal should have been light enough to not result in this enormous score. There has got to be something else going on.
