By Forgot to take my Metformin yesterday.
I'd normally take one with my breakfast and one with my tea; which covers my current dosage. Anyway, I had breakfast in the kitchen yesterday and hadn't taken any Metformin down with me so was going to take it when I went back upstairs. The post landed and I spent an extra 20 minutes downstairs before going back upstairs to hook up the recently arrived iPod to the PC. I forgot all about the tablet. Later on it was a similar story as I was distracted by a phone call after my tea and likewise forgot to take my tablet then.
I only realised that I'd forgotten my tablets when I was going to bed and spotted my Irbesartan on the side and thought "Damn, forgot my tablets" or rather, thoughts similar to that effect. Anyway, it was too late to take my Metformin then so just took my Irbesartan and went to bed. I've checked my bloods this morning and surprisingly enough they are still pretty low at 4.6; which shows just how little sugar I now have in my diet. You can guarantee that I remembered to take my tablet after breakfast.
Anyway, as a side-effect of not taking my tablets yesterday, I've woken up this morning with a headache which feels similar to hypo/hyper headaches I've had in the past. The current plan is not to take anything for the headache and hope it'll fade as the day progresses. I've gotten pretty good over the years at determining how badly a headache is likely to affect me and this one doesn't feel like it's going to have a debilitating effect on the rest of my day. Although, I do occasionally get it wrong.
