Hi all. I'm 31 male and my dad is a type 2. I started this thread before: http://www.diabetes.co.uk/diabetes-forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=25865
My latest readings just under an hour after eating was 12.3,12.7 and 12.3 again. 10 minutes later it was 11.9 and two hours after it stayed at 12.0 on two readings. Then it started dropping down a while after to 10.5, then 9.3 two and half after meal and now three afters the meal it's at 8.6.. My meal was chips, curry sauce and a sausage from the chip shop. It wasn't a huge meal at all. These are in the diabetic range. This is the first time that i've had readings this high. My fasting glucose this morning was 4.9.
The doctors always refuse to do any further tests on me. My numbers have been only getting this high tonight. How could I become diabetic overnight?
The other day my fasting glucose was 5.2 and then 5-10 ten minutes later I drank 75 grams of pure glucose powder mixed with water and my readings were: 10.6 and 10.3 - 30 mins drinking the glucose. 1 after the drink it was 9.7, 11.3 and 9.9. I thought the 11.3 reading was error because I took the last three readings one after another and 2 hours after the readings were 5.8, 5.9,3.8,3.6.
I don't understand. The glucose test wasn't too bad; below 11.1 half hour and one hour after. And after two hours the readings were well under 7.8 but after that meal I had today they stayed in the 12's two hours after and well above 7.8 even three hours after that meal. It was quite a small meal.
