=======================
Hi, Michael-

 ML> Okay. Could you check to see why there's all that junk in conference
 ML> 3, the netmail?

That was because I'd set up another message network and the other side of
the connection turned on the mail too early and my system didn't know what
it was, so the only thing my system knew to do was to put it "in transit",
meaning my system thought the mail was to be tossed to someone else's system.

It should all be fixed now; sorry about that.

 ML> My PCP was fussed because mine was in the mid-100s. He had me get a
 ML> stat eye check for retinopathy, and the ophthalmologist just sort of
 ML> laughed and told me that I had healthy bad eyes (all the eye docs say
 ML> this) and would chide my PCP for being a bit overzealous.

My fasting glucose levels have been between 150-190.  They're high, but not
as bad as being 300+ like they have been.  I did forget to check my sugar
earlier today (and inject if needed), but for lunch, I'll be more careful.

 ML> At the hospital they went from similar fussiness to not really
 ML> caring, when they found out what my body behaves like. I suppose that
 ML> they were a bit chastened when the one time they gave me insulin
 ML> (they tested me right after breakfast, and the figure was in the low
 ML> 200s, duh) and I came close to going into shock.

The problem, it seems, is that the medical professionals think they know
your body better than you know it.  However, I know that with at least my
doctor, saying the same thing to everyone and not having them listen gets
tiring after a while, so I tell all of my "doctors" to can the canned
message and let me do the work.  I'm trying and it's not an easy thing to do.

Then again, none of my doctors are diabetic, so while they understand the
whys and what-fors, they don't always understand the personal side of
diabetes and how frustrating it gets at times.

 ML> I don't know what makes this a diabetic recipe, but whatever:

I'm not sure what makes it a diabetic recipe either. :)

While this recipe is listed as "diabetic" and looks good, the salt content
in it is a whopper for me:
