Change

Today has been quite a significant day for me, a day I knew was coming sooner or later. I have started injecting insuline after two years of tablet medication for my diabetes. Supposedly my life will be a little less free from now on... Eating, testing my blood sugar and medication have to be controlled even more strict than until now.

Not that I'm sad or in low spirits though. Actually, it's the opposite: I'm kind of relieved and pleased that the decision has been made. No more stress whether the tablets have worked enough or what is my doctor going to say this time...

Now I'm learning to live with the new situation and hoping that the new medication will also help my eyes' condition stay stable. It's a bit exciting to see how long it will take to find the right dosage for me, and to get used to the different routines. Well, my life is certainly not monotonous or dull!
