Maybe It's May

We met with my neurologist last week and the great news is that my anti-body blood tests have been sent off, so we only have a 6 week wait to find out the results In the mean time, next week will NOT be my last IVIG treatment afterall. I will continue IVIG but less frequently (every 3 weeks instead of every 2 weeks). With that said, starting today I get to decrease my Prednisone from 10mg to 5mg and then hopefully in a month, ZERO! WOO HOO! Next month, I will begin some CT scans with contrast - apparently causes nausea, YIKES - for more cancer testing. That covers my anti-body situation for the time being!

Now for the T1D: I am having an obscene amount of unexplained LOW blood sugars without change to diet, medication or exercise - yes I am more active but this does not occur during those times of day!  Yes, I have adjusted my pump ratios.  As much as I hate having low blood sugars, my doctors cannot explain it and are chalking this up to the possibility of my pancreas beginning to work again.  None will make any promises as there is no current test to prove this but since other organs are beginning to work again, they cannot rule it out. I don't want to get my hopes up so...WE WILL JUST SEE. I appreciate all of your encouragement and so many of you who have included me and invited me to do things with you. On that note, let me invite you to join me for a special event!!

I will be walking in September - Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes- please join me if you will: TEAM CAUSE I GOT HIGH (for those of you who don't get it, "High" as in Blood Sugar). I believe it is a short 2 mile walk around the Capitol in Sac. on Sept 27.
