So on the plus side I did correctly identify a thing I was experiencing (low blood sugar) and how to treat it (food and sugary beverages) but on the minus side I did not identify it immediately so I made a very, uh, not great pierogi plushie? Apparently low-blood-sugar-me is similar to benadryl-me in that I'll forget things like "limbs for a hamster plushie" or "making the pierogi look like a pierogi and not just a beige blob" I'm okay now, my blood sugar didn't even get to what technically counts as hypoglycemia, it's just been a while since it got to the very shaky hands stage without me noticing it

#the person behind the yarn #food mention #medical mention #I also learned that an hour long zoom meeting with low blood sugar is not fun #I scarfed a protein bar before the meeting and drank dr pepper throughout so I was feeling better by the end #but having to be on like Most Professional Arguing Behavior with my brain not working quite right #was not fun. I did FINALLY get a second meeting between myself accounting and IT to actually talk to both at once #because I keep getting conflicting instructions. so we got that sorted. but oh my gosh #my blood sugar wasn't technically low it was 86 by the time I measured it
