My dr mentioned low blood sugar to me in the past. I thought maybe it could be..because I get so weak and cold at times. I figured that or low blood pressure as my blood pressure is often quite low. Like 80/60. Diabetes tests I had in May were normal. 29mmol A1C
I bought a blood glucose machine. It’s the caresens premier monitor.
Yesterday I had a tuna sandwich on wholegrain bread. After three hours it was 5.8mmog. Hour later it was 4.7mmog. Is that normal?
Well, I took my fasting blood sugar this morning and it was 6.1mmog. Which indicates prediabetes.
This was concerning to me and scary.
I am 26, female with a healthy diet. I am 59.3kgs.
I am pescatarian which doesn’t eat eggs or dairy (just recently cut dairy) but I eat vegan most days. I eat fruit, nuts, seeds, whole grain bread, soups (bought ones), plant milk (no added sugar), canned tuna and odd canned salmon, wholegrain crackers, brown or wild rice, odd pasta but going for quinoa pasta instead (not sure how healthy it is), olives, herbal tea (no added sugar), water, coconut water and veggie bread spreads. I don’t eat much veggies because our fridge is crazy small and it goes off quick. I do eat the odd salad and veggies once or so a week. I do eat the odd cucumber sandwich. Every meal I have is small. Apart from the odd time I’ve had larger dinners. But never anything unhealthy. Usually if it has happened, it’s too much vegetables I’ve eaten.
I eat no chocolate, no chips, no biscuits or candy, no sugary drinks..no takeaways like McDonald’s. Nothing like that
I am under a fairly stressful lifestyle due to verbal abuse and depression and anxiety. I have daily chest pain, jaw pain, left arm pain and stomach issues. I have had any echocardiogram which showed no heart related issues there. I don’t know what is going on
