Something's going on....and I can't figure out what

He is running a low grade temp

The wound on his ankle is slowly healing. 8 months....gives new meaning to the word "slow".

His eyelids are extremely swollen and he has an overall puffiness to him

He doesn't eat anything for 2 or 3 days and then he eats every 2 hours for 2 or 3 days

He isn't sleeping at nights. He is staying in bed most of the day.

If I ask him if he's ok, he says "yes"

He decided not to have the back surgery. Now he's thinking he will have it. It's scheduled for 1/31 and 2/2.

The cortisone shot is starting to wear off. Next one is scheduled for 12/8

He doesn't want to make even the simplest decisions...like what to have for dinner

He was going to go visit his parents for the last 2 weeks of December, now he's not going. (I was going to go with him)

His sugars are running high again...179 fasting.

He is refusing to go to the doctor or get new labs done. He has not had any labs done since June and that was only a partial set, did not include A1c.


I feel like I'm back on that merry-go-round-roller-coaster.

Sorta want to throw up!

My hubby's readings are 179 AND higher...it is seldom under 200...but he is really watching the eating and cut way down on the chewing tobacco so he is making an effort...don't know what to make of your hubby's behavior but it sounds like he is wanting to make good choices but doesn't know what to do at this point.
