Can I get some thoughts and prayers/ good vibes right now?

[smahala1991]

I have an infection in my groin area that has to be treated with IV antibiotics. So I’m being admitted to hospital, but I’m lucky I’m not having surgery or losing testicles. My blood sugar was also close to 500 so I’m lucky I’m not in a diabetic coma. I’ll be the first to admit, I don’t take care of myself like I really need to.

Oh, God! I'm so sorry to hear that. That sounds scary. I'm sending you strength and healing. You’re in good hands now, and I hope your body responds quickly and gently to treatment and won't need to undergo surgery. Please take care of yourself because you matter.

You're one of the old members here and answering your questions is something I always liked because you always seem like a sweet, genuine and honest person. GaG needs people like you because you guys make this place positive and kind. So, you better start taking care of yourself once you're discharged! Get well soon!

Dear Jesus, I don't know this person, but you do. I ask that you will come into this situation and bring about the healing that needs to happen. In Jesus Name, Amen

Get well soon, smahala1991. I've had Type Two diabetes since May 2003.

Do you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes?

[smahala1991]

Type 2

[msc545]

I also have type 2 diabetes. Ask your doctor if he thinks that Trulicity might help you. I use this drug and it is absolutely the best thing I have ever tried for my diabetes. It has taken all over the worry out of this disorder for me and many others. The generic name for trulicity is dulaglutide.
