Life With Type 2 Diabetes
Jan
23

I thought I wrote a post yesterday, somehow it disappeared. I had a pretty good day yesterday with my diabetes. I have been watching what I eat very carefully. My blood sugar yesterday morning was 75. I didn’t feel odd or strange. I felt good. I did wake up craving a cigarette though. I thought with the extra pill at night I wouldn’t be craving. I caught a family member smoking in the house. He thinks I don’t know he is smoking in the house, when I can smell it as I come down the stairs in the morning. He quickly sprays air freshener to cover the smell. Seems no matter how much I talk to him about not smoking in the house, he is going to do it anyway. This is making it very difficult for me. I really want to quit. I have cut down to a little less than a half a pack a day now from a pack and a half in 5 days. I think that is really good for me.

The Chantix Get Quit support line calls me each day. I have spoken to a counselor about the problem of having a family member who still smokes in the house. She gave me tips, however I am not sure it will help him or me. I like how the support line calls and checks on me.

I just wish that my family member would respect me and not smoke in the house. I have explained about my health problems and how continuing smoking is doing me more harm. Thought by now, he would understand and respect my wishes.
