I think I'm definitely going to have to schedule an appointment with my doctor. I was flipping through a magazine that a friend let me borrow and I happened to run across this lengthy article about what it's like to be a diabetic. I don't know what made me read that article. It wasn't really like anything I normally read but I'm so glad I followed the inclination. In fact, I had been flipping through the magazine to get to the article about relationships that my friend wanted me to read. She said there were some things in there that might be helpful for when I decide I want to start dating again. Maybe it's just that it was someone's personal story and I must've been in the mood to read something other than my fantasy novels. I think it could be that I was just in the mood to read about someone else's problems and challenges other than all the ones I've been having lately since my breakup. Anyways, the more I read through the article the more the woman in it started to sound like me! She was talking about some of the symptoms she was experiencing prior to being diagnosed with the diabetes and I've been experiencing those same symptoms. I guess since letting go of that last relationship, I really let myself go too. I know, for the last several years, I really haven't been taking care of myself at all. It is just really hard to find the motivation sometimes. I figured I was just still upset over everything and I never really considered that something more serious might be happening. It's possible reading that article saved my life!
