Blood Sugar Fun

[Greg]

You're not trying.

[Drunk Monk]

I feel so sugar shamed...

[Greg]

My AIC has creeped up to 6.7. Time to get serious about the diet.

[Drunk Monk]

Dude. My A1C is 7 something. And  for my last check up last week, my doc gave me a thumbs up about it. And no, that thumbs up wasn't a prostate exam.

[Greg]

I have qualms about the new doc. He comes off slightly as Joe Rogan. He was very disparaging of the Kaiser guidelines, especially the guideline that says under 7 A1C is good. He wants it much lower. Basically it is my fault I have diabetes. If I did the carnivore diet and only ate carbs at night, I could crush my A1C. Kind of a tough love bracing sort of first interview with the doc. He doesn't like cholesterol medications because they destroy cell walls. He wants me on a special Vitamin D and Vitamin B-12. It was probably the longest doctor visit I have ever had. But it was a lot.

[Greg]

Although the new doc did recommend I have liquid bread as my carbohydrate at night. But it has to be really fresh.

[Drunk Monk]

Wait … fresh beer at bedtime? Man, I got the wrong doc, husky voice notwithstanding

[Drunk Monk]

Man, if I’m having a bad day when my blood sugar crashes, I get so psycho.

Tell me why I don’t like Mondays.

[Greg]

Blech.

At least you aren't on the Snow Creek trail.......
