    If you don't mind me asking, how did they test to diagnose you in particular if you know?

    I've kind of suspected I've been insulin resistant for a while. Much of my family has it. I get extreme hunger bouts, and I eat a full satisfying meal, and it simply makes me hungrier and gives me extreme irritability where I have to just go for a walk because I just feel this weird sense of hunger and enrangement and irritability to the point of wanting to lash out at nothing. It's not constant. Sometimes once a week. Sometimes everyday for a week. Sometimes 2 years will pass. It's led to pretty strange weight gains and losses throughout the past decade. I've mentioned it to current doctors and they all simply say, maybe dehydration or anxiety. And despite me telling them that it's not mental and I'm hydrated, it's a very physical feeling - they shrug it off. I get my A1C tests and glucose fasting tests, and I'm always at the high end of before diagnosing as pre-diabetic. And that seems to be all that they want to use. I sort of suspect insulin resistance of some sort. I bought a prick monitor a bit back and I get readings that are generally ok, but sometimes totally off the charts and radical. It's very hard to navigate the healthcare system and get approvals for certain tests, finding doctors, etc... It's all overwhelming.

    The reason I bring it up, is the first time I saw a doctor in decades was to go to an eye doctor before a vacation, 2020 I think, because I wanted to get glasses and experience nature's beauty. It was wal-mart. The doctor mentioned something was off and if I have a PCP. Something about nerve endings or vessels and asking if I have glaucoma. I don't really recall. It's walmart. I am on a conveyor belt of patients getting their 100 dollar glasses, so I wasn't really able to ask many questions as I was both ready to get the fuck out of there, and they were equally ready to get me the fuck out of there.

    I feel I should take one of those tests where they have you drink an amount of sugar and then test you after an hour or two to get an accurate diagnosis of any insulin resistance. Through my own at home tests, my 2 hour window after meal test is always pretty high, but it seems doctors don't really care to listen that it's a legitimate concern of mine. They got another patient to deal with. - they basically say "your A1C is fine, see you in a couple weeks."

    Can feel that today is going to test my patience.. a group of HITs I've been doing. People are able to troll you and make the HIT either harder to complete or even impossible.

    This was so tedious and the questions went from long bubbly pages to true/false, back to long bubbly page (after page after page). It asks very triggering questions in a lot of detail and quite a few things could have been designed better. (like if you don't drink or abuse drugs, you still have to click through pages of questions rather than a one time "not applicable"

    Well, basically what started the entire thing is I woke up one morning and had giant black spots in my vision in both eyes and everything was blurry and my eyes felt...odd. I thought I overdid it on the PC or something since (at the time) I was actually turking pretty serious and doing some other side gig stuff. A few days passed and it didn't go away (got worse actually) so I made a general eye appointment. They did some kind of test where they can look/take pictures behind the eye and I had some insane hemorrhaging going on so they sent me to a retinal specialist. Specialist looked and said my blood vessels were bursting behind my eyes (causing the bleeding) and is usually a sign of diabetic retinopathy (if you want to look it up) and asked about my sugar. I had no reason to test it before (and while I hadn't been to the doctor in around 2 years, everything leading up to that point had been fine besides some high blood pressure tests randomly.) He suggested I go to the ER and get an A1C test and just generally get looked over. (I went to the ER because the doctors are backed up weeks here).


    A1C came back at like a freaking 13 or something insane so I was basically dead. That lead to me going to a PCP and getting on insulin and other medication. It's been almost a year now and my eyes JUST now within the past month got to the point to where I don't have black spots in my vision.

    I never felt...bad really even with the fact I was apparently dead. The only sign I had personally was a never-ending thirst but I was ALWAYS a heavy drinker with a glass of water near me for as long as I can remember so it wasn't too out of place.
