so as you know I have been off meds for three and a bit weeks. My sugars are behaving in that food isn’t making them spike. The problem is they are higher to begin with so after food they are hitting tens.
Am waking up between 8-9.5 every day.
Spoke to dr as don’t want to get ill.
Basically she said I’m safe to continue without meds till the bloods in 5 weeks. But then she wants me in something. If my sugars were going to behave properly they wouldn’t have risen in the first place. Low carb and exercise on its own isnt cutting it.
She is still hopeful I can go into remission (don’t really understand how if this has failed).
And I’m going into trulicity.
Not sure what to think., feel like I’ve failed but also not. Because there isn’t anything I could do differently. My diet didn’t change my sugars just went up then stayed at that level (they do come down but the swing is more but they don’t keep rising.
So I’m
A bit cheesed off because it’s back on meds in 5 weeks (as long as nothing major happens) but also relieved because they are too high really. Can’t see how I can go into remission because if I could surely this would have worked. But I’m not overly low (I think my last tablets were making me depressed. I still get low but not as foggy and stupid etc).
