Hi, please excuse the length of this!
I am starting to lose all faith in everything, I changed my diet and am pretty much carb free, no bread, pots anything really, I even changed to lactose free milk and dairy and yet it is not happening for me, nothing has been the same since I was in hospital last December with Hba1c level of 107 mmol. Before that I was ranging between 45-65 and just one was at 100mmol in May 2013- I guess that was from making jam? but after then i managed through diet alone and had really good readings.
However, December was caused by me packing up smoking and taking the champix, I could not cough up the phlegm and out of despair i took to sucking mentholyptus sweets which got it up, trouble is it snowballed and i became use to having high readings for those 6 weeks.
Since December I have been tested 3 times and my Hba1c's are 71mmol / Feb 18/ 73mmol Jul18 and 25 Sept 74mmol.
This year seems to be a life changer and has become the worst by far for my health. Ok, I have recently been diagnosed with NH Lymphoma and am starting treatment in a weeks time, half an hour a day for 5 days for 3 weeks and then they say I should be clear.
I also have Pyorrhea due to packing up smoking and have an appointment at the hospital on the 30th but have been told I cannot have anything removed due to it may affect the shape of my mask...so I have to bear with this for a while longer.
And as I have said before, terrible anxiety...is it any wonder?
My Cholesterol has just come back as - and i cannot really read any of this, but
Serum Cholesterol = 7.9 mmol <5 20 mmol/1
Serum triglycerides 5 mmol 0.80-2.30mmol/1
Serum hdl cholesterol 1.1 mmol 0.90-1.60mmol/1
Serum non hdl cholesterol 6.8 mmol
If you can make heads or tails out of it please be my guest, also if anyone has any hints to help it would be appreciated, I am now on Kwikpen Humulin N green 10 in the morning for like 3 months or so and it does not seem to be touching me, my waking results are usually around 13.mmol though I was on a naughty yesterday and had organic roast chicken with green veg, and i broke my carb rule and had some butter beans and i woke up on 15.2 mmol...I feel like death warmed up too! So shall not be doing that again!
Anyone here please because and no disrespect, the NHS diabetic nutritionist is a dead loss imho as says I am ok to have porridge in the mornings but that usually takes me to around 28/30mmol and she has said it is ok for it to spike you but shall not harm you... I am not going back and refuse to eat the stuff. If they do not help correct me soon I shall be dead before I am mid 50's..or this is how I feel...
