I learned my lesson the hard way

I should have known better, but I had to know if I could do it or not
& let me tell you what, it was a lesson I'll never do EVER again.
I went without my insulin for a full week & O M G ! ! ! I won't do that
cause as time went on I kept getting weaker & sicker day by day &
I took my sugar test & it was OFF the charts "HI" so today I started
back up my insulin with the fast acting 1st to get it back down again.
Today, (Sunday) I'll be using Both the fast & slow acting insulin to
get it back in place again so I can get my strength back like I need
cause there for awhile around noon, I was so lifeless it wasn't funny.
ALL I wanted to do is SLEEP & I didn't feel like eating & just felt so
worn out even after not doing anything but just getting up in the morns
I promise you I have learned my lesson this time 4-REAL. 
So all I can say is if you THINK you can do without your meds DON'T
do what I did & try it cause it can SURE make things a lot worse than
you think it can, So yeah this is going to be a life long lesson learned.

I do too but it looks like it's going to be a long road ahead
for me to get ALL my strength back like I USE to have but
after coming out of the hosp, I ended up with T-2 D & that's
the 1 battle I'm trying to work through 1 day at a time.

I just got tired of having to be on the insulin & was
HOPING after a yr of it I would be able to get off it
BUT it looks like this is going to be a life long thing.

@popciclecold I'm not happy about it that's for sure
but when I get back in the cabin I'm going to do
EVERYTHING in my power to work myself off it.

That was a very dangerous thing to do. In fact, it could have been fatal . Medicines are not something we can afford to miss or play with , especially when we have a problem. Again, we should be healthy and work towards same. Rest of things including finance can then be put to place. So, please do take care of your health. Please do have your insulin and medicines. Follow the diet plan and exercise as that is the only way to beat diabetics.
