Yesterday was a good day for my blood sugar levels all day long.  The highest I went was 150, which for me is a success.  I also tested about 10 times yesterday.  It went up high after I went for a nice little jog.  I disconnect my pump while I run because it always falls off while running.  But then of course, this morning I wake up with a 252 reading.  Must increase over night basal again.  Pretty soon it’s going to be like 100 units of insulin over night (that’s an exaggeration!)

Well, speaking of running, my body is killing me today.  Muscles that I haven’t used since my days of playing football in college are now being used again.  And my good ole’ shin splints are coming back.  After running a mile yesterday I was breathing perfectly fine, but I could barely even walk because my shins were absolutely killing me.  I thought I stretched my calves out good before I went running, but I guess not.

I will have to stretch even a little more today when I play tennis.  I have been getting better and better at tennis every week I play.  I am ready to go play against some of the good guys now, and really get a workout.  Well, off to work.

Just another day in the Life of a Diabetic!
