Not expecting to be so unlucky today. 2 things happened:
#1: I forgot to bring my Humalog!
I realised this only after my lunch. I will usually inject myself immediately after I come back from lunch. Only then I realised that I did not bring my insulin pen! I should be feeling happy because no injection this afternoon but somehow I felt very uneasy. The uncertainty of my sugar level without any insulin injection makes worried. But come to think of it, my lunch today was not super heavy. Went to Sakae Sushi and I ordered a bowl of Tori Udon (*yum yum*). Mid afternoon, my stomach was growling....swallowed a slice of bread...With this slice before my dinner, I think my sugar level will sure be high. Indeed when I go reach home, before I take my dinner, took out my meter and test. 16.3mmol!!! (Ok, that is my punishment for forgetting to put my insulin pen into my bag this morning). To cover for this, I gave myself additional 3 more units of Humalog. Took my normal dinner of rice, vegetables, meat and toufu soup. I forsee that my sugar level should be back to normal when I test before sleep. Well, unlucky #2 happened.....
#2: My meter is not working!
Just when I anxiously wanting to know if my sugar level is back to normal, my meter actually went dead! No sign that battery is flat. So I do not know what happened to my meter. Simply blank on the screen. Sigh! Probably, it's telling me to change my meter. It has been with me for many years. Just nice, I am supposed to collect a free meter after joining a society membership. But for the next 2 days, I will not have anything to test. I will just have to make sure I take care of what I eat and the insulin that I need to jab.
I will be fine ! :)
