Sweating In The Sauna ???

OK I am a 42 year old Type 2 Diabetic... for a few years (since I was diagnosed about 5 years ago infact) I have been a bad diabetic, definetly eat all the wrong things, and no real form of exercise !

This year I am making a concerted effort to do things the right way... I have started a much healthier diet regime, and am also trainign at a local gym... After a 50 min cardio workout I like to go and chill in the Jacuzzi, Sauna and Steam Room...

I remember reading on a Sauna and Steam Room once that Diabetic people are not suppose to do either... can someone give me some information on this ? Are they good or bad ?

I am Hyper Glychemic (yes I know I spelt it wrong ! lol) so my sugar levels are usually very high... wondering if it's bad for one type of Diabetics and not others ???

Input please, thanks in advance

OK Here goes... Remember I am in England (Europe) so we have a different scale to you Americans (who even do Diabetis bigger lol !) Apparerlently a normal person would have a BS of around 5... When I was a bad diabetic (about 5 weeks ago) it was not unusual to have a fastign reading of around 15 give or take a couple points... and after my usual consumption it could be in the high 20's (very worrying !)

OK today my ingers feel like a pin cushion... I started by taking a fasting reading which was 9.9 (still a little high for my liking) I had my hearty lunch which was probably more than I should of had (still getting the diet right) 2 prawn and cucumber wholemeal rolls and a soup bumped my BS to 13.6 !

OK here's the interesting bit... I did a 50 minute cardio workout... when I took the reading after this workout my BS had plumeted to 5.7 which would seem a good thing no ? I then went into the Sauna/Jacuzzi/Steam Room... I was a little apprehensive as my BS was already pretty low...

I did my usual routine... 10-15 mins in Sauna, 10 mins Jacuzzi, 5 mins Steam Room... and 5 mins Sauna... I should point out the Jacuzzi/Hot Tub isnt overly hot at our club... however the Sauna and Steam Room are lol... I drank a lot of water prior to and during this time... When I came out I measured at 5.3, only a slight drop but still a drop...

By the time I got home, and had drunk another 500 ml of water I was back up to 5.9... I felt fine, no ill effects, dizzyness or sickness...

Part two of my experiment will take place tomorrow... I am not going to work out, but instead just have a Sauna/Jacuzzi/Steam Room session... Similar situation, 2 hours after my lunch... I will monitor the BS before I go in, and after I come out... To see if there is any massive drop...

Maybe today due to my already low BS from the workout maybe there was no way down for my BS in the Sauna (that may be a dumb statement appologies if it is lol) Will report back tomorrow on what my finding are from this situation...
