Thank you for the help.So sorry to hear about the hospital trip.
hope your appointment resolves the type and appropriate medication resolves some of the issues.
as for the food..i am type 2..so not sure how advisable this would be for you,
BUT if i am feeling hungry and don't really want to eat..
i have found that double cream in a bowl,
( dependent on the bowl, but my cereal bowl it seems to be just covering the bottom an 1/2 inch deep.)
sorry have none to pic and show
and two squares of 85% dark chocolate..
(as squares i munch them far too quick. haven't really leant the art of letting chocolate melt in my mouth yet)
i break the squares up and drop into cream..i usually find towards the end i feel full, and THAT feeling last for ages
( NB: I suppose in coffee it MIGHT have the same affect,, i did think it when i tried it, but i'm not a coffee lover, so i didn't enjoy it so stopped after a few goes..
and it's not that nice in tea, imho. :***: )
Right.. I used google translate right there.. In norwegian, the dish is called "pytt i panne"'Hash' as in cannabis is supposed to give users the 'munchies' - ie make them want to eat, so probably not good for diabetics.
50grams of carbohydrates per day... even with type 2 I couldn't have lived with that. But it's great that you manage.Have you looked at the side effects of your antidepressants? Certain ones are linked with increasing blood sugar levels as well and causing type 2 diabetes . I wasn’t overweight at diagnosis but had been taking an antidepressant (Amitriptyline) for 3 years, an American study said that after 1 year of taking them your chances of getting type 2 diabetes increased by 84%. I’m not saying you have type 2 diabetes, you’ll have to see what your doctor says. I think your high readings are more related to your carb intake. I am controlling mine with diet but only eat 50grams of carbs per day. If I eat potatoes or bread my blood sugar rockets. I limit my self to 6 roast potatoes per week and one slice of bread per week, I’m eating Danish bread at the moment as it’s less carbs. I fill up on proteins and fats. Use nuts for snacks, and I love cheese
Yes.. You were right, it is type 1. I now use injections per meal. The pen is Humalog.As you are only 25 and not over weight then T1 seems more likely but wait until you get the final diagnosis before you change anything The diet advice here is more directed to T2's so is a little different and if you lower the carbs to drastically you will loose weight and you don't really want to do that.
I am 180cm tall and weigh 60kg, borderline underweight, that's why my diagnose is amusing to me.. But it runs in my family so there it is I guess. I will try to eat a little bit healthier, I can buy whole wheat bread and skip Capri sun, along with swapping the brown cheese with something else tomorrow. Does anybody have some tios as to what I can have on my slices of bread at work tomorrow?
On a side note, I accidentally put my used Lantus pen in the refrigerator for about 24 hours, and found out later that opened pens should be in room temperature, is the insulin now useless?
Unless they are eating one of the low carbs breadsDo test if you are eating bread - two hours after the premeal test, or starting to eat.
Not many type twos could eat two slices of bread and not see double figure blood glucose, type ones can inject fast acting insulin.
As you are almost underweight do eat frequently and replace the calories lost by avoiding carbs with protein and fats.
There are a few reduced carb breads, but as far as I know there are no breads which would fit into my definition of low carb. I thought that I had found one at my local Polish delicatessen, only for the formula to be changed and the carbs increased.Unless they are eating one of the low carbs breads
I think the phrase is lowER carb. None are actually low carb. I would still advise exercising extreme caution with lots of post eating testing at various intervals before concluding it was ok to eatUnless they are eating one of the low carbs breads
I found out that I am type 1 after a consultation with my diabetes-doctor, I now use 8units Lantus in the evening and Humalog calculated doses when I eat, sometimes I don't even need an injection either. Thank you-I m also make 35 years old and my diabetes was wrongly diagnosed as 2 before. Weight is 80 kg now but when diagnosed I was as low as 67, I looked like taken form a concentration camp. There is 3 main antibody test that will help your doctor to tell if you are type 1 or 2.
That will help determine.
Hope you control soon and stop the bread completely.
