OK, if it will make you happy I'll reword that post:
I have several problems, one is going to send me blind, the other may kill me. Unfortunately one of the meds that slows down the speed that my eyes are decaying is hastening the one that may kill me. So my doctor told me to stop taking them. I did, and that morning did a blood test that showed dropping the meds had been disastrous in the eye department, and my BSL was over three times the safe maximum. This meant I had to do three things:
1) Frantically guess how big an injection I needed to inject to correct this, and take the injection.
2) Worry about how much damage had already been done.
3) Realise that this is a "stopgap" solution, I can't do it every day, so I will have to decide which I fear most, blindness or death, and medicate accordingly.
And that is why I didn't get round to starting the thread yesterday!
