Been diagnosed for about 5 years now. I know my sugar highs are related to the menstrual cycle, though being menopausal it is anyones guess as to what is happening that direction
I have had a couple of eposodes of where I have passed out, my legs just gave way. I was not comatosed, but not quite compus mentus. My sugar levels were around 7 which for me is fairly low, but not abnormal.
I test first thing in the morning almost every day and figure have been getting higher despite higher levels of insulin. I have been reading that cold night sweats, rapid heart beats etc and then a high blood sugar in the morning is a sign of night time lows.
I was told, take more protaphane, despite losing 15kg in weight morning figures got worse, I am still told to take more .
After a lot of what I have read, my diabetes was under control taking 1/3 of insulin I used to take. I read that my night sweats and rapid heart with high levels in the morning is a hypo during the night sign.
Thoughts please
