I'm back, well almost anyway. About three weeks I started feeling a bit "funny". Crushing fatigue, very irritable (to say the least), conversations that didn't seem to make sense ect. Ended up in the ER, into the ICU and then some days on a regular unit. Ended up finding out I had become a type 1 diabetic for my 54th birthday. I was in a Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA). Pretty scary event. If I was a bit on the un-friendly side here the past few weeks I apologize. I really wasn't myself.
The Veterans Administration Medical Center in Minneapolis, MN took extremely good care of me. Sure am glad that I have that place. The medical folks there are second to none.
On the plus side the Dr's say I am clear to travel about the country. So I will.
