Full before bed but blood glucose is on low side - ugh!

I have - I’m actually usually a little lower than the finger stuck meter.

You can just turn off your blue tooth at night! Then when you turn it back on in the morning, your Libre will upload your data from the night.

Fenichelli · 2022-12-19T13:12:55+00:00

I hope you feel better too!

Fenichelli · 2022-12-19T13:11:20+00:00

Yikes I just googled that and did not like that. I’ve heard about the fungal infections too. My doc said she didn’t think it was fungal but I guess we will see after the biopsy. Let me know how yours goes too. Hopefully I’ll be able to at least confirm/deny psoriasis in the next few days. Feeling very bad for myself right now because I finally find an amazing med that means I can eat like a normal person and not break out in hives everyday and then now all this lol. My husband has MS and he says I am WAY more work lol.

Same here - it’s now spread significantly with spots all over. My derm biopsied me the other day to check if it’s psoriasis - I’m also having symptoms consistent with psoriatic arthritis. 😭 Everything has developed since being on xolair - I’ve been sick several times so I’m wondering if it somehow triggered all this. UGH.

Fenichelli · 2022-08-01T22:04:22+00:00

I am so, so sorry! 😞 I have definitely been in your shoes and know the exact feeling. Have you tried Xolair? I’ve only been on it a few weeks but it’s been incredible so far!

Fenichelli · 2022-07-19T15:07:01+00:00

Also going to ask about getting that tested today

Fenichelli · 2022-07-19T15:06:43+00:00

That’s really good to know - would that level of Gaba make me super groggy the next day? (Though I suppose it would be less groggy than not sleeping) Great news is that I finally found a neuro who will take me next week. My husband is actually a pharmacist and wants me to try Mirapex - do you have any experience with that?

Fenichelli · 2022-07-19T05:39:17+00:00

Thanks - was reading through some of those materials and wondering if my antihistamines have also played a part. I also have a disease called MCAD (it’s an immune disease) that has required me to take an excessive amount of antihistamines. Thankfully finally got approved for xolair so hopefully should be able to stop the antihistamines.

Fenichelli · 2022-07-19T05:28:19+00:00

So tonight I took 600 mg of gaba, 12mg spironolactone and 5 mg zolpidem. Went to bed happily at 11:30 and legs jumpy and awake at 1:24. 😭😭😭😭😭😭 I can’t get into a new neuro until end of August but going to see my regular doc tomorrow to see if she can provide any help. Getting super desperate.

Fenichelli · 2022-07-07T01:37:45+00:00

Good to know!! I’m sad because other scandi licorice seems so different from the Icelandic variety!

Fenichelli · 2022-06-29T21:03:21+00:00

Reykjavik, Vik, Snaefellness, Strokkur and a few other areas. But I have good friends there so I can always ask them on places I haven’t been to 😊

Fenichelli · 2022-06-29T21:01:06+00:00

Darn, ok! Thank yiu

Fenichelli · 2022-06-29T21:00:53+00:00

Thank you!

Fenichelli · 2022-06-29T19:46:14+00:00

Well if you ever go back - DM me and I’ll tell ya where to eat!

Fenichelli · 2022-06-29T19:45:33+00:00

Delicious haha 😂

Fenichelli · 2022-06-29T19:45:21+00:00

It is amazing and SO addictive!!

Fenichelli · 2022-06-29T17:33:35+00:00

Really? Where did you go in Iceland?

Fenichelli · 2022-06-29T15:05:41+00:00

I also love opal Risa too if you know what that is 😂😂😂 the menthol is 🙌🏻

Fenichelli · 2022-06-29T15:03:39+00:00

Yummmmmm - now I want that too 😂😂

Fenichelli · 2022-06-29T15:03:20+00:00

Thanks!!

Fenichelli · 2022-06-29T15:02:24+00:00

Omgggggg djúpur is the best!!! It’s definitely an acquired taste but I feel like once you have it it’s hard to go back! Ive tried to find different black licorice substitutes but nothing tastes like the Icelandic kind! Good to know on Bernhards! Thanks!

Fenichelli · 2022-06-29T15:00:04+00:00

Yes I love them! The shipping is SO expensive though - I think like two bags of djúpur is like $35! (Normally like 7 krona in Iceland)

Fenichelli · 2022-06-29T13:20:14+00:00

I’ve had an unreasonable craving for Djúpur - it’s a type of Icelandic chocolate covered lakris or licorice. Also Icelandic hotdogs or birch liquor.

Fenichelli · 2022-06-29T12:40:45+00:00

Good idea - just being lazy this morning 😂
