Last Monday, I went to have my lungs examined and while at their office, I asked to get the pulmonary vaccine.
I've never had any problems from any vaccines, including the earlier one for our lungs.
However, this version had some serious side effects, perhaps only for people, like myself, who have Type 1 diabetes.
For the entire week my blood sugars have been sky high and are stubbornly resisting insulin.
I've had Type 1 diabetes since 1990, I get vaccinated for what I believe is appropriate every year and I have never experienced any side effects before.
Since Monday, I wake up between 1:00 and 2:oo a.m, find my sugars too high, stay awake to deal with it and monitor the effect of the insulin I provided.
I've had to give myself insulin in amount as high as 10 units at one time, something I've never had to do before.
Since overdosing on insulin is very dangerous, could even cause death, I then stay up and monitor what happens.
After five days of this, I'm tired and not able to come up with blog posts.
So I will take a break, which I hope will be short.
