I have read that it is important to have a sick plan as a diabetic. I brushed it aside and chose not to focus on it because there was so much to focus on with the daily diabetic plan. Well....sickness struck last Thursday and it was a bad attack!! I was not able to keep any food in so my BS went crazy. I called my Dr. and she did get me in that day. I had contracted somonella from some food I had eaten at a fast food place. I thought OMG that happens to other people not me....wrongo it was me and I had to deal with it. My Dr. has placed me on antibiotics which can do things to my BS, the safe foods for me are carbs mostly at this point so I am not eating a lot and just being sick is doing things to my BS. I am unable to exercise to bring my BS down. I am drinking a lot of water though which is suppose to help lower BS. This is only suppose to last 4 - 7 days so I am almost through it. I will be stocking my pantry for sick day eating in the future and have a clearer idea of what I need to do from my Dr. so that next time I am attacked with illness I will be prepared to fight!
