So I had a brush with death today… I was in the lab, and my blood sugar plummeted, the EMT told me it was at 1.4mmol/L (normal 5-8, and you’re apparently supposed to pass out at 2.5). For some reason I’d locked the door so my boss couldn’t come in (she was worried because I wasn’t returning calls/etc).
I don’t remember anything that happened until I “came to” and the EMT’s were there. I’m a little freaked out now. 🙁
I keep wondering what would’ve happened if my boss never found me, the people in the lab building (is actually next door to the building my work is usually in) were all done for the day, I could’ve been there all night.
Now I just mostly feel sick and tired… think I might go to bed.
(Although if PT reads this, she’ll probably understand now why I couldn’t look at her “Skully” uni right now….. it freaked me out)

I only jump in and out of the Community forum from time to time, so I get behind on whats going on with everyone 😳 . Take care hon and I hope you feel better soon * BIG hugs*.
August 12, 2010 at 3:50 am #824129oh no! that is definitely scary!!! gotta take care of yourself… get some rest! so glad they found you before anything serious happened…
August 12, 2010 at 3:55 am #824130So glad you are OK! No sugar getting to the brain can be very dangerous. Hope you feel better soon!! (((hugs)))
August 12, 2010 at 6:50 am #824131I’m relieved to know you’re alive and well, but seriously – get some emergency chocolate in that lab! We keep ours in the closet behind a storage box so the supervisor doesn’t know…

Male Hearth....one day🤞Dream on.August 12, 2010 at 12:30 pm #824133😮 Oi! Thank goodness you are ok!
August 12, 2010 at 12:37 pm #824134What a scare! 😮 I’m glad you’re all right, I hope there’s something you can do to ward that happening again.
August 12, 2010 at 3:07 pm #824135I will be stashing some granola bars in the lab (with my supervisor’s permission) in case something happens again, I will also be keeping my medical info in the lab with me, so that they don’t have to run down to the other building if/when it’s needed.
And oh man, do I feel like crud today. Headache and everything, decided to stay home.
Thanks for the well wishes! They do make me feel better, like a giant e-hug or something. I was/am pretty freaked out by it.
August 12, 2010 at 3:35 pm #824136So glad you were found when you were! That is scary but I’m sooo glad you’re all right! Take it easy for the day–you definitely need the rest! [hugs]
