So the good news is my updated fasting and Hba1c blood tests have come back normal again. However I still need to keep checking my post meal sugars due to the 3.1 mmol result we caught once. The pattern I've observed so far is confusing me - for someone supposedly not diabetic, I sure how weird sugars!
- Being mildly dehydrated raises my sugars to 7.1mmol usually.
- Sometimes no matter how much carbs or sugary foods I've had, my blood sugar dunks down to low levels between 3 - 3.5mmol within an hour.
- Here is the most important part. By the 3-5 hour mark after eating, no matter how normal or low my blood sugar was at the 2 hour mark, it suddenly shoots up to anything between 6 - 11 mmol. I never eat anything else in between the meals, this just happens for some reason, regardless of the meal.
Because of the virus its going to be a very long time before I see the doctor again, and with my sister being recently diagnose as Type 1, I can't be too careful. Any ideas what's going on with my odd sugar patterns please?
