 It's good that you monitor it so closely.  :hug:

thanks :hug:

yeah i take my blood sugar 4 times a day. it is usually like 100. Normal is 80 - 100. A regular person can go a little over that if they just ate a whole bnch of sweet, tho. If it is ever over 150, you most certainly have diabetes. The highest I ever measured mine was 536 and the lowest was 36.

I may have mentioned it before, but I've now stopped my psych meds (seroquel and valproate)...So I no longer need to take them.  :2thumbsup:

But I took my other meds (HRT and vitamins)

That's a good thing. :)

Is it? Well..It's good I'm off those meds particularly as they were making me depressed and suicidal. But I'm not entirely sure either way whether it's a good idea of be off psych meds entirely...

I've just been noticing for a few minor and intermittent signs similar to my first hypomanic episode, so I'm just wondering if I stayed off meds would another episode be inevitable...and therefore should I go on meds to prevent it? But if I do will that just bring back the depression?

Something I'm pondering.

If you can manage without meds, you should be, IMO, and that's what I meant when saying it was a good thing.

I managed to take mine every day, except once I forgot them until I woke up in the middle of the night and took them then, probably because this thread wasn't popping up in my unread posts to remind me.
