Today has been another day much like yesterday. My speech has been slurred. I've been tired all day. I have felt very slow and in a fog. I just know I can't wait till I can go to bed and just go to sleep. I've been dreaming of doing to sleep for he last six hours. I just feel like a zombie and can't wait for that feeling to be gone.
So today I saw my regular doctor and he put me on medication for my diabetes. I have no problem taking the medication and am looking forward to getting my A1C number down. My only complaint is that he wants to draw my blood in six weeks and and that if he doesn't see an improvement he may put me on insulin. I was under the impression that an A1C number should be checked every three months to get true reading. I feel like had he sat down with me right after he got the results of my blood work rather than let me hang in limbo for six weeks then he could order an A1C test for six weeks from now. I just feel like my opinion doesn't matter and that this doctor doesn't really listen. It's very true that when your poor you don't receive the same level of care as someone who is.
I’m a 46 year old man who’s been dealing with Bipolar my entire life. It wasn’t until 2013 that I was diagnosed and this blog is my story. As you’ll see there’s been many lapses in my posting but I’m going to try and get back with it. I’ve had a lot of trouble during my lapses but I continue to remain optimistic about my bipolar hence the title Optimistic Bipolar.
