How is the blood sugar level?

Well, I've not had blood sugar problems in the past. Doesn't mean I don't have it now, though.
Dr wanted to have this done because I mentioned in the last visit that I noticed my toes and feet were purple and cold to touch. I normally don't go without shoes and socks on, so I don't look at my feet on a daily basis. My wife can walk up and down a glass pile and not notice anything. Put a piece of glass in a 40 acre field, I'll find it on the first step. My feet have been numb for years, but getting around, lately, has been increasingly difficult. The technician, very cute young lady, kept asking me if legs/feet were cold. To the touch, yes. But they feel like they're on fire all the time and in pain. I don't normally complain, especially to the family. I go to the Dr, get my prescriptions and get on with life the best I can. I don't intend to be a Debbie Downer, guys. But thought you all should know some things.

I didn't realize how bad the pain had gotten for me with my blown disc until about a month after surgery when the majority of the pain was gone... The difference was sobering...

Borrowed the neighbor lady's pole pruner and butchered on the other neighbor's sweet gum tree.
Wheeled the picnic table over to get me some reach.

Borrow Jim's pole saw to finish it later.

Rabbit hutch will be in the morning sun for longer but bunnies are tuff.

Not to scare ya but that whole thing sounds like diabetes. On fire sounds like peripheral neuropathy. Gotta be something else though. Be advised that extremities don't do well without good blood flow. If not corrected could lead to you walking on stumps. Definitely get yerself to a doc and follow instructions. Just sayin. Pray it goes well

Blondie gave me permission to prune her pink dogwood bush. It's not a tree by my definition. Poor postman has been dodging the damn thing forever.

PITA to mow under.

Went over to Nathans place Sunday and helped him put in a window unit for his shop. All I can say he is lucky, most of us sweat our sacks off wrenching on chit. I know where I'll be if it's hot out!

Did some reading on periferal nuropathy. Sure explains a LOT of my symptoms.
