There’s a smoothie place near where my wife works called Nutrition Smoothie and if you look inside it’s “open”, but there are no smoothie machines and you never see anybody in there except sometimes maybe one guy behind the counter. We have a running gag about what would happen if you tried to go in and actually order something bc it’s so obviously a front.
Anyway, thinking about mafia au!Simon being on counter duty and reader coming in and trying to order something and he’s just staring, mind boggled that she doesn’t notice the obvious lack of smoothie paraphernalia.
#I like to think she’s diabetic and needed to even out her blood sugar#he’s like uhhhh shit what the fuck do I do#there’s like 2 bananas#they have one blender but he’s not sure if it even works#he finds some apple juice in the fridge#he gets obsessed with making sure she’s okay bc clearly she can’t take care of herself#simon ghost riley#mafia au#cod#simon ghost riley x reader

Hey y'all! Another weird question for you: How long do you have to fast for a blood sugar reading to count as a fasting blood sugar measurement? Also, does drinking soda (like, full sugar soda) slowly over the time before the blood test count as not-fasting? Asking because I keep testing* in the fasting blood sugar range when I am pretty sure I am not supposed to. Like, two hours after eating a meal when I've been slowly drinking soda the whole intervening time, or half an hour after drinking a whole full-sugar gatorade *with the home blood sugar test thing, not like doctor's office tests. though I test in the fasting range there too? I do know the word for the tester thing but I am brain fogged at the moment
#the person behind the yarn#blood mention#food mention#like. obliquely? but sort of there so I tag it just in case#I have a new personal record for lowest blood sugar when testing at home now! 91#I ate lunch two hours ago had some goldfish crackers after that and have been slowly sipping on a dr pepper#(as well as water I have two drinks going at all times)#and my blood sugar is STILL low#so I am eating some candy and then I will eat more goldfish and make sure I get extra protein with dinner#but seriously what the heck#this is not how blood sugar works for other people right????#it's not just always low but technically not hypoglycemic?????#I do not have diabetes I have been checked for that. a lot. it's probably the second or third most common thing they test me for#but nope whatever my problem is it's not that my body just yearns to yeet nutrients as efficiently as possible without retaining them#salt and sugar both apparently. also vitamin D but that one could just be that I don't go outside much#I take supplements for that it's fine#but there's not really salt and sugar supplements?#okay there are. I take the salt pills. but sugar is iffier. like there are sugar pills but I suspect#that's probably not the best way to increase my blood sugar

if you. are making a video. you're sitting down to talk to the camera and make a video. shortform video. vertical video. less than a minute. tiktok instagram reel whatever. i have full confidence that you do not fucking need to eat right now. do not start your sentence and then shove an apple slice in your face two words in and keep talking through your apple slice. you're making yourself look so obnoxious and hateable. really truly i know you can put the apple slices to one side for the amount of time it takes to get your sentence out. i believe in you. why don't you believe in yourself
#prazardous#tiktok#instagram reels#misophonia#i dont have misophonia genuinely i do not care about mouth sounds and chewing noises#and not to sound like a boomer#but close your goddamn mouth when you eat and dont talk with your mouth full#it is so simple and so easy#unless your video is about blood sugar levels and you are diabetic and desperately need to eat right fucking now or you'll die#but you want to give us a glimpse into what that's like so you're recording it and talking about it#actually no i think even in that case you can take two seconds to chew and swallow your food before speaking again

A 40 year old trans milf is willing to be your sugar mommy, and even pay for you to get slime HTR, the downside is that her sex playlist is nothing but Imagine Dragons, do you accept
Look here, if I'm getting that slime HRT, completely free ride, I'll fucking have the sex playlist be nothing but Lemon Demon's "Two Trucks Having Sex" for 12 hours straight
I'll get freaky with her if it means she's paying, the freak level: ∞ is there for a reason
The freak train stops for nothing if it means getting that sweet fucking slime HRT, I need that fucking shapeshifting and the ability to experiment on "willing" "men", you have no fucking idea
#diabetic-best-bi#I know the TF kink is probably showing really hard on this post rn#But like#What do you expect from a tgirl who repressed her feelings for who the fuck knows how long#Actions have consequences

Me googling "low blood sugar" only to find out that it is NOT common or normal for non-diabetic people to experience. I experience it somewhat frequently.
#last night had a bit of a scare#took too long to realize how hungry I was#started getting really weak and nauseous#and started sweating so badly. I had been fine 10 minutes before#parents had to get me food because I was too weak to get it myself#dad told me that's what happens to him when his blood sugar is low (he's diabetic)#I'm so confused now why is this happening to me#I mean I always knew I don't do well if I go too long without food but I thought everyone was like that#at least to some extent yk?#apparently not though#apparently fantasy book characters don't have supernatural powers that keep them functioning after skipping two meals#help lol#idk what to do#I'm pretty sure I'm not diabetic because I feel like I would have other symptoms?#and I know that diabetic people usually only have low blood sugar when they take too much insulin#and I don't take insulin because I'm not diabetic#so. idk. what should I do#any advice would be appreciated

Just some more Still Wakes the Deep blah blah, but omg having just been diagnosed Diabetes type 1 myself recently, it makes me only love and feel for Roy 10X more...
This shit is litteraly poison, but so does the food we eat with how much sugar there is in ugh OTL
Never thought in a million year I had DT1, I had 0 symptoms and am in pretty good shape, but then suddenly, organs are starting to hurt really badly out of nowhere...
Don't wait too long poeple and check with your doctors even if there's ''nothing'' T0T and to all Diabetic ppl out there, keep on fighting 💪✨
#random#delete later#first 2 weeks of diagnosis i didn't realized what it meant to live with this#but the 3rd week it really sinked it and i couldn't stop crying everyday#i felt even more like a failure and it made me even more angry that my biological parents left me with that#being adopted i have no medical history and i was already living a quite healthy life style#ofc it could have been even better but now i have to do many extra steps#everything's back to normal now but holy shit that hit me like a truck#plus it was urgent since it had been MONTHS it was left untreated and my family doctor just never told me or bothered to check my blood tes#so ughh idk it sucks with life being already hard as it is#high blood pressure now this... tho theyre probably related#i prepared my bucket list sooo i guess LET'S GO?! jk jk#i'm scared to have a heart attack or stroke in the middle of nowhere where no one i love is around... and that'll be it#but i mean if it happens it happens i guess XD#i'm hopefull now but holy shit... fucking pancreas who just decides to stop working#when you read more about DT1 it just feels like a bad employee who suddenly doesn't want to work anymore#and the good boss cant do anything about it#oh well#as long as i can still create art i'll be fine and happy#diabetic? more like diabethicc

Everytime my sensor alarm goes off I get filled with indescribable rage.
Like shut the fuck up why are you making noise I will look when I care to or when it's convenient to me 😭
Why are you so obsessed with me 😭
#i feel bad for the other people in my house cause when it goes off at nught i sleep through it and it wakes them up#not that i care enough to do anything about it#cause if it doesnt wake me up it needs to wake someone else up#so i dont go into a coma and die#i have enough brain damage thank you#its the min reason i havent moved out yet#what id my sugar levels drop and no one is there to help me and i die#kinda scary when you actually think about it#its why i dont#now you may be asking why dont you decrease your insulin at those times#its dont work#is there a limit on how many tags you can use#diabetes#type 1 problems#type 1 diabetes#diabetic#type 1 diabetic#t1d#sensor#libre sensor

#nine bullet points#of diagnosed things i struggle#i struggle with#1. type one diabetes 2. adhd 3. bipolar 4. severe anxiety 5. depression 6. insomnia 7. migraines 8. dpdr 9. ptsd#and im just ?? existing like this??? literally how what the fuck#there’s more than that too thats just like the actual able to be diagnosed shit#probably also at least slightly autistic but my psychologist said that its not bad enough to impact me big time and a diagnosis would do mor#more harm than good so im just kind. Not lmao#but also: abandonment issues self worth issues guilty conscience issues feeling unworthy of literally everything issues#awful at establishing boundaries#sh issues#(not for like years but its a struggle to not relapse every year esp during winter)#suicidal ideation but at least ive never actually been suicidal#not bc i particularly love being alive but because the fact that i dont know what comes after death scares me too much lmao#even at my lowest of lows i have not wanted to kms SOLELY bc the unknown scares me enough to be like#yeah this sucks but at least i know it#at least it’s like familiar which is sad but still true lma#OH ALSO eating disorder lmao. diabulimia is a thing.#genuinely how have i not been fucking hospitalized#not in a bad way but like. idk how i havent gotten to that point yet#tho to be fair there are multiple points i probably should have been tbh#i just. dont want to worry people? or inconvenience anyone. and i know im not gonna kms so its easy to be like ‘i dont need that’#i have overshared way too much in these tags sorry i’ll stop now#if anyone has actually read all of these: i’m sorry. i love you. i hope you feel better than i do. i hope you smiled today.

its blood test day, and while i know i probably wont get results until next week im making my own lil theories about what ive got
#there's definitely some kind of anemia that i already take iron for but i learned recently that there's also b12 anemia#so it could be that instead but the iron is working well enough#(i wont take today's iron until after the test in case it messes with anything? idk)#and im not set on the diabetes thing bc i dont really have symptoms at all??#but ill let them do it anyway bc idk what else would've fucked with my eye like that??

I hate the US healthcare and insurance system. I don’t know what is going on behind the scenes but if it doesnt get fixed or I can’t find a solution, I’m royally fucked.
For context, I’m a Type 1 Diabetic and I need insulin to live. Since I got diagnosed back in 2017, I’ve been using shots and been prescribed Humalog for my fast acting insulin. Now, for whatever bum-fuck reason, my insurance has just decided to change my insulin??? I’m still prescribed to Humalog, but my latest shipment has been Novolog. This wouldn’t be such a problem except the fact that the Novolog cartridges don’t fit into my pen, making them completely useless. Luckily, I still have plenty of Humalog left, but unless I can find a pen that can fit my new cartridges or get my insurance to stop trying to fuck me over and give me my Humalog left, I don’t know what I’m going to do. I’m fortunately in a fortunate situation, cause I know people who have to deal with the exact same thing except they don’t have enough insulin to last them.
So now I have four boxes of insulin I can’t use, five boxes of Humalog left, an insurance company who won’t give me my actual prescription, and a healthcare system that does not help me in any way.
#fuck the healthcare system#i at least have insulin to last me but if i didnt i actually dont know what i could possibly do#its horrific that there are diabetics that are in that situation#t1d problems#actually t1d#type one diabetes#gonna punch my insurance in the face istg#actually diabetic

Oh god why the physical discomfort is happening again. Why is it so tiring to walk or do anything. No matter how much I sleep, I'm still tired. I manage my diabetes well. Why does my body just make existing feel bad.
#I don't fuckong know who i am.#im so fucking tired#diabetes management#I guess#Woo hoo. I have a rare condition that I can't find shit about anywhere#And I have to convince fucking doctors that I know what I was diagnosed with as a child#No its not type 1. No its not type 2 either for fucks sake#Yes its chronic. No my fucking eating habits didn't cause my body to not work#Yes I am sure can you shut the fuck up about eating habits#No seriously fucking stop#I don't give a shit if you think that I could've prevented the chronic illness that is literally a GENETIC MUTATION FOR FUCKS SAKE#MY FUCKING EATING HABITS DIDNT DO SHIT TO CAUSE THIS.#WHAT VOULDVE CAUSED IT WAS MAYBE ALL THE CRAZY FUCK8NG STRESS I WENT THROUGH AS A CHILD. AND THE TRAUMA. AND THE FACT THAT DIABETES RUNS IN#MY FUCKING FAMOLY#why am i so angry#I hate feeling so bad#I just wanna colapse in bed and sleep#Im so fucking tired but I can't even blame it on diabetes management#Im getting enough sleep#I think#I didn't stay up last night#Why am I so tired#I just want to feel ok#I can't have caffine because my parents won't let me#Im just so fucking tired.#What the fuuuck
