Yep! There are times I don't want to take it and there have been days I forget to take it when I get up.... no idea why. lol. What you are feeling is normal... And it is 'ok' to feel that way from time to time. And I suspect that on top of everything else, your not feeling well, doesn't help at all. Your numbers were great yesterday. That should be a positive! Hang in there and vent here ALL you want!!! We may not be in your situation, but we still 'get' it and we do care!!!!  If we can do nothing else we can listen. Take care of yourself and I hope you get past the cold/infection/whatever soon!!!

We all get like that from time to time and we don't even need to be sick to be whiney.  I have been known to get on the soapbox on a few issues,like why they put high fructose corn syrup in some foods.   I think that stuff is a problem although the industry denies it but will get into ranting when i see it in something it has nobusiness in, like canned tomatoes and even mustard!

As to not checking or not wanting to check BG numbers, I bet every diabetic around feels that way from time to time.

Oh my godh, YES!! Ther are days I don't want to take it even once, or I'm afraid what it'll be. Then when it's high I get deperssed. I have gone months without taking it at all, but now I'm at the point where I need to pay more attention, so I'm forcing myself to take my fasting at the very least.

You are not alone, I dread it every time!
