Thanks!

Diabetics can not controlle their blood sugar level properly. How is this treated?

I am 4 months pregnant now. And I had a blood sugar test 2 weeks back and it showed fasting blood sugar level 6.0 mmol. Doctor advised me to have strict diet and I was dieting these 2 weeks and today I had a test again… My FBS was 5.4 mmol and 6.2 mmol 2 hrs after breakfast. Can anyone tell me… if it is high or normal?

My blood sugar level 2 hours after eating is within the normal range but my fasting blood sugar level is high – anywhere from 105 to 115. Is there something I can do to lower this?

What is the normal range?

oksendme.info How to use your Free Glucose meter. I did this test after eating a huge huge meal so you can see kind of high readings. The machine is pretty simple to use and is GREAT for runners who want to learn what their blood sugar levels are. Turns out many runners do not know how to properly “fuel” their bodies for a long run and having this machine is a nice diagnostic to determine your blood sugar level. You can get a free Glucose Meter if you follow the guidelines given here: www.youtube.com Basically, Glucose is “created” in the liver as glycogen which is then converted back to glucose and sent to the muscles so you can run or whatever. In the muscles, the glucose is THEN broken down to yield (Adenosine Tri Phosphate) ATP, which is the fuel source for muscles. Like gasoline for your cat… As Glucose is used your body (because you are using your muscles) will continue to increase your blood glucose levels as its primary fuel source during your workout. However, once your body uses up its glucose, your blood glucose levels will drop. At this point, your body begins to draw on stored fat to fuel the workout. I know what you are thinking.. I can lose weight by eating up fat instead of glucose.. There is a big controversy about this. In the end it is never good to let your glucose levels drop too low… Again, get the freebie machine to see what YOUR glucose levels are BEFORE and AFTER a run! oksendme.info A healthy person’s fasting (take the test when you wake up …

There are ways to make blood sugar levels normal. You just have to first understand that the foods you eat are certainly not an enemy. Do not just believe too easily that when you eat such sweet food, it will lead you to have diabetes. That isn’t always the case. Mostly, it’s not about sugar at all but the situation of the pancreas. The cells in the pancreas are dying that leads to more body complications of a person.

There are three ways to sample if your blood sugar level’s normal. First is through glucose test – CSF. It is a test that measures the cerebrospinal fluid with the amount of sugar or glucose it has. The part that this clear fluid flows is the space that surrounds in the brain and spinal cord. Doing this test will mean using lumbar puncture or spinal tap. It should be that the normal result is about 50-80 mg/100 mL in glucose level. The test can be helpful also to diagnose delirium, tumors, central nervous system inflammation and other medical conditions.

Glucose test using urine sample is another way too. The glucose that can be found in urine is called glucosuria or glycosuria where the healthcare provider asks to stop the use of drugs since that might affect the test results. Such healthcare provider usually checks the urine sample done through catching the urine specimen using a sensitive color pad or a dipstick. Such pad contains chemicals that react to glucose’s presence. So basically, the color of the dipstick will change and will tell how much glucose there is.

Through traditional blood glucose monitoring, it requires test strips, small needles or lancets then a recording pad. The process goes as pricking your finger using lancet and then place the blood drop to the special strip to determine the glucose amount found in the blood. Meter will be displayed in digital numbers.

Usually, blood sugar level’s normal if it registers in between 70 to 150mg. The level will change due to many factors including the time of taking the meal or if there was no meal intake at all. You will not be considered as diabetic only until the level of the blood sugar will follow overnight fasting above 126mg/dL. For example you have 115mg/dL. Most probably you assume that you already have diabetes knowing the fact that it is above the normal range. No, you don’t.

It is rather suitable to call it pre-diabetes or impaired fasting glucose or impaired glucose tolerance. The dangers associated with above or below the range come in process. If it is below 70, then the condition will be called as hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).

Once you are diagnosed with pre-diabetes, it happens to be just as step ahead of those who already are diabetic. It simply means that you have still the chance of lowering the level of your sugar.

Timing is important with those three tests. Just one test and it will already let you know if your blood sugar level’s normal. If it’s not, then it’s the start to have diabetic menu so you can maintain the sugar count as quickly as possible.

My sister just took my blood a couple hours after I ate lunch and it was 119. Is this considered high?

I am diabetic and have decided to check my daughters blood sugar level because she has been a little crankier than normal and has spit up alot the past couple days. She is 7 weeks old tomorrow. I am asking because I know what a normal adult range is, but I also know that a newborn has a lower range than an adult and need to know what the range is at her age now. (And yes, if she gets worse I will take her to the doctor)
