Title: Aloha, not blind any more :)
Post by: Zen on August 10, 2006, 12:21:01 PM

OK, don't get so worked up and yes I'm ok.

The temp. blindness was the only bad part of a very good thing. You see (no pun intended) I have Diabetes and I could only get it down to 250 to 300 for a very long time. Normal is around 60 to 120. I have been under a doctors care for over 5 yrs. with this, and they finaly listened to me and gave me Insulin. Now I bounce between 75 and 145, this is a big drop that started the first day that I started the Insulin. I'm still a little high so we are tweeking it still but so far so good.

As to the blindness the level of sugar in your blood changes the shape of your eyes thus changing your vision or in my case lack of vision. I have been able to read now for about 3 weeks so now I'm back.

Hope to see you all IG!

stay safe,
Zen

Glad to see you're in good health - abusing the old adage, "if you don't have your health, you don't got nothin'".  :)
