At what point in time did you take your bs and it was 81?
I do wirte every thing down for my doc
1- i took my bs at 10am that when ate my breakfast and that when it was 84
2- at 1pm i took my bs it was 81 then i had lunch and i dont check after i eat becuse my doc just side befor i eat
3- my goals that my doc gave me is anywere from 100-150
and the site that you gave me read anywere from 90 to 150
i always check my bs befor i eat. let me no what other factors you need as you no this is all new to me so .. and iam not look for medical advice or diagnose me ..just some info
An 81 at 3 hours after you ate does not seem a problem to me.
Hi,
Besides what Cheryl asked you, I have a few questions? How much Special K did you eat? Did you put milk on it and what kind of milk did you use? You should be keeping a food diary and you should be measuring all your food. Otherwise you really have no idea what you are doing. You can't eyeball the mesaurement either. That is totally inaccurate.
So please get back to both of us and then we will see if we can help you.
it was 1 cup of Special K and 1/2 of 2%milk and 1 of the fruit cups the ones that come 4 in a pack...i was just getting worried i though my numbers were dropping I figure with a breakfast like that .i assume that at 1pm my numbers would have been up not going down I was getting worried that they were going to get to low..
when i was at the doc office 3weeks ago they said my numbers were very good but also was think that it may just be a honeymoon sage.
i guess i just freak out when i saw that it went down to 81..:)
I'm short act insulin I give my self before ever meal and i take a long act Insulin at bed time. please let me no if you need anymore info from me .
1 cup of Special K (original)
What was the prescription for how many units of short acting insulin you take befor meals? Usually it is something like 1 units for every 15 or 17 units of carbs. If you aare dropping too low you may need to decrease the amount of insulin or increase the number of carbs. But be careful with increasing the number of carbs as you can gain weigh that way.
Did you ever have the test done that proves that your pancreas isn't producing insulin?
I take the short acting insulin bass on my bs
<100-- i take 1 unit
100-150 i take 2 units
151-200 i take 3 units
>200 i take 4 units
and the long acting insulin is 14 units at bedtime
i dont think i never had a test that proves that my pancreas isn't producing insulin
how is that test done. but that is a good question to ask my doc.
i was olny see this dco becuase i was hyerthroidism. so i was try to get it under control.
then i start get symtoms for about 2 months were i was so thirts could not sleeep i alway had to pee.and i lost a lot of weigh i was 115 i went down to 102lb
my doc did blood work on me. and told me i have diabetes. and that were im at now
It is a blood test. Specifically GAD.
This isn't the usual way that insulin is prescribed for type 1 diabetics. As I said to you it is usually prescribed based upon how many carbs you are going to be eating. What worries me about your regiven is that I think you are taking too much short acting insulin when your blood sugar is under 100. Your long acting insulin should be taking care of this. So you might be taking too much insulin. Please remember I am a type 2 diabetic and I don't have as much experience with a type 1.
Incidentally type 1 diabetics need to have their thyroids checked annually because if you get one autoimmune disorder you are more susceptible to other autoimmune disorders. Hyperthyroidism is an autoimmune disorder.
Have you been able to gain back any of the weight that you lost? I certainly hope so.
When do you get your next A1C test done?
can anything happed to me if i take to much insulin .
in two weeks i go for my blood work maybe you can tell me what these are
compmetabolic pael
liped panel
and i ahve a1c on here too
