It happens when you are using floating point numbers. They can&#8217;t really store any number exactly, always just a close approximation. I&#8217;m less accustomed to it in the real world.<\/p>\n<p>This morning I was pulled out of bed by a massive owl hooting outside my window. Sounded like it was less than three feet away. So, at 2:30 in the morning I rolled over and tested my sugar. Surprisingly it was only 117. I washed down my Pan-whatever-it-is acid reflux tablet, got dressed and went to my office.<\/p>\n<p>At my office I pulled a previously opened can of Diet Mt. Dew out of the fridge.\u00a0 Even as I write this at 6:46 in the morning there is still some in the can. That&#8217;s it in the photo. It clearly states zero calories on it.<\/p>\n<p>After answering some email, thinking about writing, and playing some solitaire I went into the house for breakfast. (I&#8217;m supposed to wait at least half an hour after taking the pan-whatever before eating. Consuming non-dairy liquids is supposed to be okay.)<\/p>\n<p>Just for grins I decided to test before eating. 139. WTF? Either the tiny little white pan-whatever (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.drugs.com\/pantoprazole.html\">Pantroprazole<\/a>?) expanded into a snickers bar in my stomach or my zero calorie Diet Mt. Dew isn&#8217;t really &#8220;sugar free&#8221;. I went to bed before 8pm and wouldn&#8217;t have gotten up if it weren&#8217;t for the owl. The activity involved with dressing and walking across the yard to my office had to burn a few calories.<\/p>\n<p>The owl was still on top of the crib when I walked to the house for breakfast. Odds are it will visit again tomorrow or next week. They seem to be on some kind of circuit. Spend a few weeks here during the summer and a few weeks during the winter. One would think given the hawks, falcons, and owls which visit on a regular basis we wouldn&#8217;t have to deal with mice, but we do. Our gopher population is basically gone (not a bad thing.) I&#8217;m guessing game is getting scarce for them given all of the coyottes in the area.<\/p>\n<p>A few summers ago a Southern Water Snake moved into the dirt around the crib foundation.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.whatsnakeisthat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Nerodia-fasciataMS1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.whatsnakeisthat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/Nerodia-fasciataMS1.jpg\" alt=\"Southern Water Snake image\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1357\" \/><\/a>Kind of freaked me out as I was zipping along with the zero turn mower wearing sandals. Don&#8217;t see much in the way of rats or mice around there now though.<\/p>\n<p>So. What I&#8217;m saying is that I should be able to conduct this experiment a few more times without any effort on my part. I&#8217;m sure the owls will visit shortly after midnight again. I&#8217;m sure I will be able to change up the fluid from Diet Mt. Dew to brewed iced tea (tea I actually brewed from a bag) to just bottled water.<\/p>\n<p>I would be interested in hearing from other diabetics taking Pantroprazole. Test before you take it then test just before you finally eat. Keep track of what &#8220;zero calorie&#8221; beverage you consume. It would be interesting to find out if the drug is causing the sugar spikes or if my &#8220;zero calorie&#8221; drink isn&#8217;t really zero.<\/p>\n<h3>Update: 2020-01-09<\/h3>\n<p>Woke up early again this morning. Tested: 154 (yeah, I ate too much last night) Took my Pantroprazole and went out to office. This time I drank only fresh brewed iced tea that I brewed myself from a big bag. When it came time to go in for breakfast I tested again: 124. This is what I expected. Will conduct another test the next time I wake up real early. I&#8217;m still interested in hearing the experiences of other diabetics on this matter.<\/p>\n<h3>Update: 2020-01-10<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-4547\" src=\"http:\/\/www.interestingauthors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/big-bottle-of-diet-dew-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Big bottle of Diet Dew image\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/big-bottle-of-diet-dew-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/interestingauthors.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/big-bottle-of-diet-dew.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/>Curiouser and Curiouser. Woke up about 4:15 am and tested 162, yikes! Gotta start behaving better at night. Drank from a 1L bottle of Diet Dew (instead of the can) checking email until 5:18 am. Tested 138. I&#8217;m wondering if this is specific to canned Diet Dew? Perhaps the canned Diet Dew in Illinois or Midwest. I know not all Diet Mt. Dew is the same, but I wouldn&#8217;t think the back of the can could lie. Oh, if you don&#8217;t believe me about all Diet Dew not being the same just look at the cans and bottles. Some will say &#8220;0 Calories,&#8221; others will have 5, 10, whatever.<\/p>\n<p>Will try to keep a running log of this for a while. I&#8217;m guessing the Pantroprazole is off the hook for the sugar spike. Too bad prescription Pantroprazole seems like a placebo compared to over-the-counter Prilosec.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As a geek I&#8217;m used to the concept of a non-zero zero.
