High blood glucose concerns heart specialist very …/ Coronary atherosclerosis distribution and the effect of blood glucose level on operative mortality/morbidity … of Cardiology

I am 20 years old and weigh about 110. About an hour after eating high carb meals my sugar seems to drop low is this normal?

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?

Many of us have been led to believe that if our blood sugars aren’t really that high unless above 200. Actually a fasting (before morning food or coffee) blood sugar above 85 represents the beginning of high blood sugar. If you have diabetes your goal should be pre-meal blood sugars 70-99 and 2-hr after meal blood sugars b/w 100 and 139 (lower ranges are best).

Over the last 2 years I have been losing weight, almost 25 pounds, my waist reduced by almost 2 inches, and during this period started feeling very tired during all day. Finally I visited my family primary care physician in Oct 2010. After lab test I realized that I had type 2 diabetes condition, with my blood sugar levels about 286 ( after lunch).

Primary care physician referred me to a endocronologist, who wanted to put me on insulin ( a dose of 16 ) straight away. I did not like the idea. My reason was that, now that I know the cause of what is going wrong in my body, I need to give myself a chance to do all that is possible to redress the situation for a couple of months, and at that stage re-assess and take the decesion to get on to insulin.

It has been two weeks since I started making changes to my life style like switching to low glycemic foods ( of below 40 ), and exercising on a daily basis at a medium level, and checking my blood sugar using ONE touch Ultra2 on a daily basis ( at least 8 to 10 times) to understand the increase and decrease in blood sugar levels in response to my eating times, excercise, stress etc. The other big change I have brought about is to give up battles in my mind which I dont need to fight, out of all the changes this has proved to be tough and is still proving to be tough.

To my surprise and happiness, Im seeing my blood sugar levels dropping as a result of my above efforts. During the course of my monitoring I realized that there is a upper cap of my blood sugar in 320s and lower cap in early 200s. This was before 2 weeks.

Since the time I have been eating low glycemic breakfast lunch dinner, lots of water, excercise at least once a day ( 40 minute brisk walk), my blood sugar levels have gone down to a range of 114 to 197. Since the last 4 days there has been only once instance when my blood sugar went above 200.

My early morning reading i.e. fasting reading is still high it is averaging about 130 – 140 over the last 10 days, my after meal reading is average between 155-175.

5 questions:

1. What should I do to reduce my early morning i.e. on fast without food or water reading ? I want to bring it down to around 75 to 85.

2. I have reduced carbs which has helped a lot, and switched to salads and meat. But body also needs carbs. What are the best sources of carbs in my context?

3. I have observed that even though my blood sugar is less than 140 ( which is the standard for after meal) or in specific between 120 and 140, I feel some level of dizziness, and also some head ache early in the morning. Is this because of the reason that my blood sugar levels are coming back to normal after a long time i.e. I might have been in the 200s and early 300s for a long time, and over the last couple of weeks due to changes made to food and excercise it is being in the range of 130s – 180s ?? Is my body in the process of getting adjusted to the new relatively low blood sugar levels ?

4.What are the symptoms we should expect when blood sugars are coming down to relatively low level from higher levels?

5. Just want to add that my urine still smells sweet and is yellow in color. At what stage can I expect this to reduce. Note that when my blood sugar level is less than 150, the sweet smell in the urine goes down and the urine color is also light.

6. My early morning fasting reading is the issue here. It is averaging around 150 to 160 over the last 2 weeks i.e. since I started taking low glycemic foods, excercise daily. Im quite sure it must have been much higher earlier. I want to tackle this area first, please suggest. What and when should I be eating the evening before to get my early morning readings to around 120 which is my first goal, before trying for 90.

Im not on any medication.

My readings during the day i.e. after breakfast, lunch, dinner currently are 150 to 160 before , and 2 hours later they settle at the same i.e.150-160 or go a little lower into 140s.

It is obvious that I should be tackling my early morning readings first.
Thank you very much for your response.

But Im looking for opinions and tips and ideas with which I can work on my fasting blood sugar level over night. My first goal is to get it down to 110.

I just started on a medicine to lower my high blood sugar. I ate lunch (a salad, light cheese stick, and some almonds) and checked my blood sugar and it was 86. But I’m feeling a little shaky like I usually feel when I haven’t ate in a while. Is it because my body just isn’t use to a normal blood sugar level? Will it get use to it? Anyone had this happen before? Thanks!
