Sugar coming down from overnight high. Great days are more common than I thought (as evidenced by reported number of times I feel "good").

This is the one day (every 2 or 3 months or so) where it feels good to stretch, I feel rested and I feel truly "good" with stable sugar 115.

About once a month I feel like this for part of a day. "Good" rested and feels good when I stretch with good sugars (189 post-meal). Yay!

Feel pretty good, but sugars have been a little high today (200s) and have a little headache right now at blood sugar 137.

Troy Kestrel added a treatment evaluation for Simvastatin Nov 16, 2011- Advice & Tips
- Physicians need to be more aware of the need to review medications as potential causes of unexpected symptoms. Took this drug for two-plus years before I happened to read an article about stomach muscle pain and realized the drug was the cause of my long-term, consistent, daily, "odd" stomach muscle cramps. I believe (though am not quite as certain) that the drug impacted my muscle function, thus making weight lifting more difficult. It clearly impacted my quality of life. Symptoms ceased almost completely immediately after I stopped taking the drug. Had 1 major cramp a couple of days later and 1 major cramp about 3 weeks later and continue to notice slight occasional after effects (small cramps) to this day but the cramps are almost completely nonexistent now that the drug isn't being taken, compared to multiple cramps daily when I was taking the drug. Also, it's essential these drug side effects get reported. My doctor, pharmacist nor nurse were willing to report the side effect because "they already know." If more patient reports came in, perhaps the real picture of how many people are affected would become clear. Ought to be a law mandating medical professionals report ALL suspected side effects.
