High Blood Sugar

Ma's blood sugar has been pretty high lately, over 200. Pa has been giving Ma insulin every morning (she didn't need insulin before) and doubling her glipizide. Ideally, her blood sugar should be checked before every meal, but Pa has been checking it only once a day.

If Ma walked around the house a little bit more often, I think it would help lower her blood sugar. But she's so sedentary and always has lots of excuses as to why she can't move around more often.

Oh well, at least she's eating a lot.
