Glad your doing great Cheesy!! But be careful with the sugar counts, if your sugar goes down that low try taking a little bit of orange juice with some sugar added to it, just a tablespoon that is enough to bring it back up. This is what my Dad used to do with my Mom and still does. Before she goes to bed every night he gives her a piece of candy. My Mom went into a diabetic coma a few years back while she was sleeping at night, it was a very scary thing for my Dad to go through. You will get it straightened out soon, you just went through a major surgery my friend it all takes time to get back to normal.

Cheesy keep your self in good health as I believe your purpose is to see the Packers become the next Dynasty. :thumbleft:

Football set aside, I hope you continue to have a good recovery.

Thats HEAVY Formo......and SO true. I never heard that comment before. I've had alot of what i consider "important" times in my life.....some where God graciously SHOWED me why i was here. I knew something was wrong with me (other then the "obvious"....LOLOL!!!) but had NO clue how close i was to "checking out". Not ignoring the fact that i felt the tightness in my chest, telling my wife, and having her insist i tell the doc undoubtedly saved my life. So, for some reason, God wasn't ready for me yet. The best part for me was, that i didn't have a massive heart attack. I had a student doctor that came in with my cardiologist. He looked at my entire file, and told me that the entire left side of my heart would have died had one of the two 90%ers had a piece of floating plaque hit one of them. I probably would have been gone before i hit the floor. Thats some heavy stuff to hear. And it's not that i'm afraid to die, i have a deep faith in Heaven. Bit when i thought about the loved ones i have that would be left behind, it really hit home. I remember how my Dad's sudden death at 44 messed up my entire family.

Hedder........i'm HOPING that i can get off the insulin and back on the pills. That would make me SO happy. I have changed my diet alot, and portion size alot. I just took my blood sugar and it was 101, which is perfect. The reason i'm on here now is i slept 2 hours, and woke up in alot of pain. So i figured I'd visit my "home" before trying to get some more sleep.

Porky......thank you for the well wishes! Every comment i get from my Packer "family" (even those that arn't Packer fans but come here regularly) gives me an uplift that you can't believe. I have never been in this kind of situation before. As most regulars here know, I have many physical problems. Many "life altering", but up to now, none of them have ever been life threatening. To know that there are people that care enough to let me know they wish me well is a blessing to me i do NOT take for granted!
Thank you all!!!!

Glad to hear you are recovering well. April 10th is my day too! I am going to a St. Louis Cardinals game that day. Work has really sucked lately, so I'm really looking forward to it.

Good to hear you are doing better Cheesey.
Have fun at the ol ball park IM. Wish I were there too.

Cheesey - So glad to hear you're doing better. :thumbright:

I'm a tough cookie.........alot tougher then i ever thought.
If you would have asked me 2 months ago if i could make it through something like this, i would have said "HELL NO!!!"
I guess you find out alot about yourself when you are put to the test.
My doc cut back on my insulin, so i don't take as much. Thats a good thing of course.
Again, my thanks go out to those here that have given me backing. It HAS helped!!!

Don't rest too hard Cheesey! Everything in moderation now :D

Take it easy and have a good one. Reading your story has opened my eyes to how fragile we are, even those we know. That's one of the reasons I'm currently booked for a general medical check up in an hour, which I haven't taken for about 6 years! So Thank You, I should say.

I thought you been to every fan fest

or was that the drugs talking 😛

I HAD been to all of them! Thats why i didn't want to miss what WOULD have been my first MISSED one! :thumbleft:
