Shit, I think I have cold. So far just on the right, but it has gone from the weird sting to full on congestion that side. Damnit. Flushing as much as possible, but probably too late.
Whatever happened to the still beating heart of a virgin? No one has any standards anymore.

Last night was not a good night. Sweating, heart racing, blurred vision, dizziness, weakness. Yep, a quick check revealed my blood sugar had crashed down to 38. Orange juice, sugar water, prunes could not get it above 45. Called 911. The first thing they had me do as soon as they understood the situation was ask me to unlock the door. They Emts were there five minutes later and gave me glucose injections while checking my blood sugar. Finally, carbs alone turned out to be unable to get my blood sugar back up. and they switched to have meaning eat crackers and cheese to add fat and protein to the carbs. That worked so they did not have to take me to the hospital. As they left, they told me that I did pretty well for having blood sugar in that range. Blood sugar in the 40's, let alone below usually results apparently in lying unconscious on the floor. So to be on my feet was actually pretty good under the circs.
Comparatively minor league in the spectrum of Buffista medical sagas, but scary none the less.

How scary! Take care of yourself!
I just called in sick with the stupids attack of the snot. Kinda the same. How is it that a headcold incapacitates my brain before I even take any drugs? Gonna be going through a lot of kleenex today.

Punishingly Intricate
Who was it who recommended Mario Badescu for rosacea? I want to make sure I bought the right stuff. The keratoplast creme soap?
Burrell, I use Mario Badescu but I don't have rosacea. I can ask my friend who sells it what they recommend though.

Glad you are better,Typo. It maybe difficult to control for the next 24 hours

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Holy crap, Gar. Glad you're all right! Take care of yourself, man, that's scary. Definitely not minor league stuff.

How scary, Typo. I'm glad you're OK.
Thanks lisah. My face feels way better today, so something in yesterday's combo of treatments (Badescu & cortisone cream) worked.
