Hello,
 
Apologies in advance as it's been a long time since I've logged on, but need help.
 
Need to know if anyone has had a direct impact of being under so much stress (work / personal / whatever) other than BG control.  Within the last 30 days I have had to start Zoloft due to Panic / Anxiety Attacks and Thursday I was in the ER due to one because I thought I was going to have a heart attack!  Doctor indicated that this is affecting my kidneys, in the long run not to mention other things.  I know it is harmful, but can anyone really say they had something diversly affect them due to something like this?  Please advise.
 
I have a very stressful job that has eaten up my life for 9 1/2 months.  I went on the pump back in July just to try and get a handle on my sugars. (Pump is great!) but still have LOTS of sugars 225+ due to the stress.  I'd say at least half of my sugars if not more are in that range.
 
PS.  My job is very aware that I am Type I to no avail they keep piling on the work and pressing me!  Any advice?  I can't go on like this but am the family provider......?
 
Thanks for any input!
