A fight within.



I've mentioned before that my goal with this blog is to keep it to the topic of health, diet, healing, etc. And while every facet of life on planet earth can make or break one's health I do understand that focus is everything.  So why is it that when I set out to better my health through diet, sleeping better, and just taking better care of myself.. the person I'm with is mostly like dead weight I'm dragging behind me on this journey?  Honestly, I may never know the answer to that.  So then what?

Accepting my diagnosis of "Pre-diabetic" was easy.  Re-structuring my way of eating on a daily basis and getting my doctor to listen to me is all yet another battle.  I was placed on a medication that began working to lower my FBG the next day, made me sleep better for some reason, and made me feel closer to 'normal' than I have in years.  After two doses I was taken off and put on another that has made me sick with nausea and other gastric upsets, and turned on the sugar craving to an unbelievable degree. Two phone calls in 3 days to my doc's office has yield NOTHING in response thus far.  Where the hell is my advocate in all of this??
