Day - 19

I didn’t put quite enough insulin last night so my blood sugar before breakfast was a bit high. Not too worry, it was still under 10 :-). 

I went to the doctor again this morning. The doctor thinks that I got asthma that was triggered by a virus. The virus got killed by the antibiotics I took but the cough persists. So I had to get the inhaler to get rid of it.
It’s extremely expensive (€85) for a month worth. A puff two times daily, and I also got another inhaler which was much cheaper (€8) to give a short relief when I get a coughing spasm during my sleep. Lucky the doctor didn’t charge for the service because I just went to him a week ago. If not then I would have to pay another €55.

Unfortunately the drug payment scheme (where a family has a limit on how much to pay in a month for prescribed medicines) has gone up to €120, so I still had to pay the full amount.

I just hope it will work this time before our holiday abroad.
