So last Tuesday (last week not this) I took my last diabetic meds.
I had got used to my sugar patterns. Now they are completely and utterly different.
I’m waking up higher (up to 9 but usually 8s). Even if I test early hours I’m still up there.
By lunch time still in the 8s
By this time of day 5pm ish I’m hitting 6s and today 5.6 (yippee)
Then by the time I go to bed it’s up in the 8s and 9s again.
Couple of questions.
1) If these are high numbers for me does that mean my hba1c will go above the 54 in November tests?
2) dr mainly concerned if I’m consistently hitting double figures (so 10 and above) I know people here say 8 is too high so should I be going to dr?
My sugars are reacting normally in that my food isn’t pushing them up higher than they should it’s just they are always higher to begin with.
3)I’ve been getting really bad headaches this week. Is that dorm to more sugar in my blood? Feels like carb flu but they are higher not lower and I haven’t dropped anything food wise as been good anyway.
4) I exercised twice this morning for a total of 40 mins. So assuming that gave me my 5.6 just now.
But it’s almost like I need to exercise at night again to work overnight (really not going to happen as I’m usually working)
I’ve aldo noticed my eyes seem really bad this week. Can’t be a coincidence
Is it good if my sugars drop this time but are higher the rest? I don’t think so but I have no idea other than to jump around 24/7 to achieve the lower numbers again
