Hi

Maybe some of you know me by now - and have followed my way in bringing my sugar numbers and meds down (exercise & Alpha Lipioc) - My numbers are 5.6 on an average still and Im off most of my meds.... - now however I get a sugar trip twice a month where I eat sugar like no tomorrow for an hour....it doesnt seem to have any impact on my sugar numbers as I get so scared about it that I do readings every hour after (3).....is it OK to have such trips? - and how come I dont fly on sugar even Im into Toffee banana's and crepes with icecream???????

Hello Kim,

A toffee banana now and again never killed anyone(discuss), but don't expect the idea
of a sugar binge to get a round of applause on a diabetes forum. :D

You say that you are off most of your meds, does this include insulin?

If you're getting plenty of regular exercise and you've lost a fair amount of weight since
diagnosis, then this could explain your body's ability to handle the sugar rushes better.

Best regards,
timo.
 
Hi

Im off insulin and only take 1 Gloucophage tablet after dinner....but why I get sugar binges I dont understand....as I eat a level of sugar in an hour I probably normally wouldnt eat in 6 months before.....and I cant control myself....
