Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

If low carb not enough then a temporary increase in meds?
What does your care team say?

8.1 so heading in right direction

 

[serenity648]

I am not on any meds. It is now creeping down to 6.3, so perhaps the antibiotics are kicking in.

Good luck Tipetoo, hope all goes well during you lung specialist appointment. He will be able to confirm if you indeed have COPD. My GP misdiagnosed me and a visit to the specialist confirmed I did not have COPD after going through a series of tests. Allergy of dust mite was the culprit.

Thanks Keesha, but have all ready been diagnosed with a COPD ( Emphysema) over twenty years ago, what the Specialist is to look for is why I cannot lay on my back with out running out of breath causing me to go into AFib.

Good man!! We like to her you're being well looked after.. And your numbers are really solid so congratulations

Thanks Callyandy, nothing like blowing your lungs out on a Spirometer machine, I am a old hand with ECG's as well. I had all of those the other day.

So today's reading is a 6.0 at 5:20 am which I am very happy with (being positive here).

I also am feeling good this morning, it must be the extra two doses of Spiriva inhaler last night kicking in.

@Tipetoo having a beer at the bowling club last night didn't help either then

I have not had a beer since Wednesday mate, I have not even thought about the couple of six packs I have in my fridge till now.

To early to drink them now, although in the old days of shift work I would have had a couple when I knocked off night shift at 7:30 am.

Ive been a bit partial to that myself in my time
