Long awaited update!
Posted On April 11, 2008 08:25 AM by Aurelia

So i've been like gone from myffxi for quite some time, and a lot has happened.  Where to start? I have no idea!  I finally reached 75 BST on Aurelia. That was a nice and huge accomplishment. Very happy about it.  I also continued leveling a new job and reached 59 NIN.  Unfortunately i think i've started to grow tired of Aurelia, i'm not sure. So i ended up starting a new character who has almost all her jobs at level 20ish - 30ish.   Its always fun for me to level lower level jobs. I also went on to level this new characters cooking to 87 and get Raw Fish Handling and Patassier.  Was unable to play for  awhile though about, well less then a month back i guess. I was sick for a couple weeks+ with Pneumonia. It was not fun.  While in the hospital they did blood tests on me and found that i had diabetes, or so they though. Well several more doctors and a lotta blood work later, they confirmed i have Type 2 Diabetes, which i guess isn't so bad. They have me on this pill medication to help my body process sugar better. Its not insulin or anything.   So i'm working on making lifestyle changes to benefit myself and my health. 

 

My daughter turned 7 on April 8th. She is having her birthday party this Saturday, so that should be quite fun ^^

 

My BST looks sexy hot! Feel free to wave to me or say hi anytime you see me in game! ^^/

Yeah, thankfully it is easy to manage, and not -too- expensive. But definitely try and see the nutritionist, they were very helpful for me, in understanding what I should and shouldn't worry about, how to look after what I eat, and very good for answering any questions I had. And, I'm not too sure how the health care system works in the US (I'm from Canada, Health Care is basically free), but maybe you could apply for a subsidy or something? I'm pretty sure the government has something set up where you could get additional coverage (I only pay about 15% of medical costs, and I get to claim it on my taxes). So look into it if you can :) your nutritionist may be able to answer some questions regarding that as well.

Thanks you two.  Yeah i just need to get my sugar levels down. I've still yet to see the nutritionist or whatever, because of having no money i'll probably have to resschedule to a point until ido, even though seeing her is important.  I have no insurance sadly, so taking care of my diabetes is going to be a hard challenge. I'm on my last few strips and no money to buy them at the moment.  I find it funny my medication is really cheap, and everything else. I even got my monitor for $15 new.  But the strips are $50 a box.  And the supply only lasts about a week and a few days.  And that just hurts in the pocket.

 

Yeah, bst to 75 is fun. Its my second time doing it.  I camp Xol/Citi every day, got Xol all but two times in the last 30 days. Citi i get aabout once a day, but never get a drop.  When not camping those, i am on my new character, just lvling low lvl jobs. I may do BRD again for a 3rd time, just because its fun ^^

You got your bst to 75? Very good job :D However, how can you be bored? A 75 bst has a myriad of things to do when you hit 75!

 

Though we don't know each other (different servers and all that) I'm sorry to hear about your diabetes. It's actualy rather rare for someone your age (to get type 2) - however, (which im sure the doctor pointed out serveral times) it's very easy to manage.

Sorry to hear about the hospital visit and the diabetes x.x I know what that's like, I was admitted about a year and a half ago with various problems, and they did blood work and found out I'm a Type 1 diabetic. Not always the most fun thing in the world, but not the most damaging either, so good luck with it :) and congrats on 75 BST! I know how proud I was to hit that mark as well
