Selamat menjalani ibadah puasa di bulan Ramadan yang barakah ini. Amin.
Yeah puasa is here. Yeah! I like this month coz I can feel all the goodness that comes with it. It's a nice warm feeling.
Today though I went around school looking like a zombie. Contrary to the popular notion that because I'm fasting therefore the tak bermaya look, it's mooe due to lack of sleep. Yes I know. Da tau nak puasa, nak bangun pagi makan sahur...tidur lambat-lambat chat-chat kat msn. Memang padan muka aku!
Other than that I am doing fine I guess. This morning for sahur though, I faced a dilemma. You guys know I'm diabetic right? So being diabetic means I need to be on medication..So my dilemma was whether I should eat the metformin pills I take 2 with every meal. You see, metformin functions to induce my pancreas to release more insulin to eat up all the sugar from our diet.So I need that. But considering this is puasa month and I won't be eating during the day (the doctor won't be happy to know I'm fasting), I risk having my blood sugar drop too low which will make me hypoglycaemic..those of you who were in JC with me will know what will happen when I'm hypoglycaemic. So how? Should I eat the meds during sahur or should I skip it? This morning I decide to risk it. So far so good...so I think it's ok right?
However just so we all know..just remember that if I look pale or getting shaky(this one most important and prominent for me) or having fainting spells, get me that sugared drink pronto.. Other than that... Selamat berpuasa sume!
