I'm starting to fall behind on the anime I'm watching weekly. Feeling too dizzy to watch much. Oh well it might be better to just let the current season end and binge what I have left of demon slayer. Actually yeah I guess most of the stuff I'm watching doesn't end anytime soon. Vinland saga and dr stone are 2 cour.

Rant all you like, Youkai. The missus was recently diagnosed as diabetic, and reading about your experiences is actually helpful to what she's been going through.

Ah I'm sorry to hear that but it's nice if I've been a help to her. Today was another rough one but a little less so than yesterday. Felt pretty bad but wasn't quite shaking and this time my blood sugar was a normal 96 so I'm even more at a loss. My fingers hurt like hell though. I think because of my red fingertips I bruise more easily so each spot I took blood from is black and bruised and hurts. My waiting is briefly at end though. GI doctor tomorrow at 2 if I can somehow manage to drag myself in there.

I did finally expand my diet a little to include some tuna since just eating brown rice and bananas and apples was leaving me quite deficient in protein. Eating half a can of it didn't trigger the horrible tearing pain that chicken did so presumably I can include that in my diet. I'm still only managing like 1000 calories a day. I'm really trying to up it as much as I can but rice and fruits and tuna are all practically nothing in terms of calories. I think a whole can of tuna is only 135 and a meals worth of rice isn't much more. Definitely hoping the GI doctor tomorrow can give me some more info on a lot of this stuff and hopefully schedule an upper endoscopy soon. If that turns up nothing it's time for gall bladder surgery to remove it which COULD solve a ton of my issues (or it could do nothing). I'm down to 166 lbs from my original 215 and I'm running out of weight to lose so I really need this issue resolved sooner rather than later.

Even if my heart issues persist, just being able to eat more foods and more easily get up to like 2k calories a day would probably make me feel a lot less weak and fatigued all the time. It's also only 1 more week until I get my heart tests (a whole 3 months after they referred me to a cardiologist). Considering I already knew what tests to order in the beginning (echo and event monitor, pretty standard) that entire 3 months could have been condensed into 1 day but no, that wouldn't present a high enough risk of killing me or cause 3 months of terror.
