Allen Cash's living with Diabetes

I DID NOT see this coming! 5/30/2015 Apparently Diabetes has graciously given me yet another hurdle to get over. This one is much more serious than I ever could have imagine. Here is what I know so far. last Thursday I had my yearly eye examination. I went in with the theory that more than likely I would need new glasses. I knew my vision was weakening due to the last few months. I was having issues with constant hazy vision and slight dizziness. Dr. Rowland (love her!) spotted some bleeding in my left eye and wanted me to see a specialist who happen to work in the same area as she (Eye Institute). I set up my appointment with Dr. Suelflow for the next morning. When we arrived the place was packed, so needless to say... we were there waiting for a long time.

Best Follow up EVER! 5/15/2015 Hello all, So I had my Diabetic check up today and I am so excited and very happy how things are going. My cholesterol is real good and so is my white blood count. Both are in normal range. In Fact all my blood work came in perfectly. However... the best news is my A1C! 12 months ago my BP, cholesterol and my AIC was sky high. My A1C was a whopping 14 and now (drum roll).... it's a sweet low 5.4!!!! I do still have to keep a close eye on my B.S level because it tend to drop fast. Not below the range set but enough to make me shaky and dizzy. D-Rex did seem a bit concern with the sudden drops but he wants us to keep a close eye on it for now. My next appointment is in September, so we will see how it goes. Anyway... that was The Best Mutha Fukin Follow up EVER!!!! Now I want some cheesecake.. HA!
