Hello,
I have been diagnosed 3 years ago with type 2, on meds Glucophage RX 500 mg every day one single pill.
This problem I had long time before diabetes. My BS is now 102 and A1C was 6.3.
I had 7.9 in the past and sometimes when I eat sweets (very rare) I reached 230 one day. Usually in the morning BS is 136 before breakfast. During the day, especially after a good lunch I have everry day the BS gets down to 110 and it keeps thsi values until dinner. I eat about 6 meals a day, 3 meals and 3 snacks in fact.
I used to eat a lot of sweets even with diabetes but on meds, until a few months ago when I took out all the sugar.
I still eat bread, it gives me energy.
Now, the Problem is the following: when BS is down to 110 or less I feel AWFUL. I shake, I have a terrible headache, weak legs, powerless and brain fog, lack of concentration. I eat some carbs and I reborn. Like a machine without gas.
I am at the 5th diabetes doctor who do not know what to do with me and keep on saying different things like eat 5 meals a day. I eat 6. I complain that I feel awful and they do not say anything because I guess they do not know what to say about this situation.
A few days ago I agreed with the actual doctor to take out the Glucophage for a month and see how it is. I feel great but the problem is the same, even worse. This morning my BS was 157 - now, 4 hours after lunch is 112 and I am shaking. What should I think about all these? I am not able to loose weight because of this awful situation because when BS is low I eat carbs to regain energy. I tried EVERY other food, does not work. Is like eating nothing. I went to nutritionist, no results.
Nobody knows what to do with me, not even myself. Why is this happening to me? What can I do to lose weight and feel energetic not a veggie? A few years ago an apple and some seeds were good to increase BS level, now they are not, is like eating nothing.
I eat a lot of bread.
I hope you understand me, I saw there were doctors who did not but I hope someone was in my situation and found a solution.
THANKS a lot.
