Type 2 diabetes farcical gave me uti leading to sepsis in icu 1 week
Thanks for the advice. I remember testing urine that way when I worked. I am a huge plain water drinker so I will definitely put that into practice thanks for being so supportive
My Free style CGM reads 30 to 40 points higher than my fingerstick. I know a fingerstick glucometer is + or - 15%. But how accurate are the Sensors?
Thank you. I will work on TIR. I did look into the accuracy and precision of glucometers. and CGMs. Alot to absorb, but the important issue is that they all work and give a workable number. I⦠read more
I take two units of NovoLog before each meal and 8 units of Lantus before bed. If I snack, it is with popcorn or nuts.
Thank you so much for the information. I know I need to do more of both. Starting tomorrow, more water and more exercise. No. Really.
Today my fbg is 103-when I divided it by 18 it was 5.7. Since 5.7 is in a normal A1C range, why is the normal fbg range set at under 100? Nit picky-but I'm curious. I DO realize I need to continue lowering my numbers to a safer range though. My endo suggested I aim for 4.-but that is another story. :)
Hi mine is always between 4.5 and 7 sometimes it goes up to 13 but i dont even eat much so o dont even no why it is like that, i drink a lot of water thou.
I've been a type 2 diabetic for 30 years.
@A DiabetesTeam Member The tips of my toes would occasionally itch, burn and redden before I changed my lifestyle. I remember the bed sheets would hurt them further. My A1C was no higher than 6.4 -6.5β¦ read more
I redid the glucose test and my numbers went way up then went way down and since then (2 days) all my levels have been about 1.5mmol/L higher than average (fasting, pre, post). Pretty worried I broke my pancreas further lol! Is that a thing or will my numbers go back to normal? π°
Oh thank you, that makes sense, and your edit above is reassuring! I didn't realize they knew it was at 8.7 and above that damage happens. Good to know!
Thanks again! I'll keep watch
How do my sugar level be incontrol
Hi, you need to purge the black Bile (oxidative stress) via natural detox so yr blood sugar stabilize and beat down the diabete monster....for more info alert me.
Remission is now a consensus definition that states its a condition where the A1C of a diagnosed Type 2 Diabetic is below 6.5% (48 mmol/mol in the metric A1C scale) for minimally 90 days "without the use of any anti-diabetic medications"
To remain in remission you must maintain a sub-6.5% A1C, without medication, on each successive A1C test
What that does NOT mean is that you have cured it, rolled back to normal, can go out and eat pizza chased with coke or that if you don't slip one tiny⦠read more
It's amazing how easy it is to exercise if u have a pet dog for long daily walks
Talk with your doctor. A med adjustment may be called for. Shoot for A1C of 7.0 or less.
