Ok so I have really been watching my blood sugar in preparation for my surgery on Thursday. If you have seen my other posts...

My blood sugar was 356 last tuesday :( Im now on Metphormin, and it has come down to 256 on Thursday.. 232 yesterday.. and this morning it was 203!!!!!!!! Even after dinner today .. it was 222. I know its not GREAT, but I am so thankful its coming down.

I usually am super thirsty.. and now.. im sitting here drinking lots of Water (i heard its good when trying to lower your sugar levels) and I can barely get any down :(

Is this because my sugar is now coming down?

Please everyone pray for me! I have a follow up with my pcp on Tuesday morning for a final check of my sugar.. he said if its not 200 or below they may delay my surgery :( But isnt that up to my surgeon? I would think also.. if its clearly coming down a lot in less than a week... that maybe that will prompt them not to cancel it :( I am so scared. So please cross your fingers/toes/eyes whatever for me lol :)

Tamz, it is GREAT! Look what you have done in one day, down by almost 30! Your PCP and surgeon work in conjunction with eachother for your benefit. So they will confer and decide if you are good to go. Keep doing what you are doing and I think you will be ok. Who knows, tomorrow it may be down ANOTHER 30 :)

The thrist is gone because your sugars are going down. Thirst is a symptom of high blood sugar. Keep drinking, keep walking and most especially, keep us updated.

Everything is crossed that can be crossed for you.
