Blood sugar after food
Common Questions and Answers about Blood sugar after food
blood-sugar
While it is normal to have a rise in blood sugar level after a meal, excessive rise in blood sugar levels could indicate inappropriate dosage/ timing of injecting the insulin or excessive or inappropriate proportion of carbohydrate in diet. You could start by slightly lowering the carbohydrate and increasing the protein portion of diet. If this does not seem to help, I would suggest consulting your treating endocrinologist for adjustment in dosage/ timing of the insulin.
Hope this is helpful.
t surprising. Def include exercise after a few weeks getting your food intake under better control. Sugar comes in many forms so be careful. You really want to get your sugars and other medical matters under xontrol. Living unhealthy affects every aspect of our lives. I'm fighting to lose this weight and watching required meds be removed by docs as the fat drops.
At 72, I've never had any doctor address anything regarding an elevated blood sugar level from bloodwork done every 6 months! Had bloodwork done 2 weeks ago, my blood sugar level is 133...how do I deal with this?
What has caused this? Doctor is concerned, not frantic about this today, but I am alarmed.
ve been having troubles lately before I knew my blood sugar was high, after I would eat I would feel very bad, not knowing I had high blood sugar I was leading a normal diet, even some fast food here and there, I'm sure my blood sugar has been very very high until I started dieting now. Are those numbers normal or should I be worried?
blood sugar 137 before exercising. After 15 minutes light-to-moderate exercise, it was 85.
One time I felt particularly shaky, and it was 65. I didn't test before, but I felt "normal".
What's worse is that I am getting these drops from even minimal physical activity. As an example: blood sugar 110, after walking at a slow pace (strolling) for a mere 10 minutes, I start to feel a little shaky and my sugar is 78.
I would see a good nutritionist for some hands-on advice, and read read read -- lots of books on eating to control blood sugar. There are also many supplements that have been used to control blood sugar, such as holy basil and cinnamon. But since you have to be in control of your blood sugar, you want to learn how to use them properly and an internet site isn't the best place to do that.
the doctors like to use the Hg (aka Hb) A1c test nowadays to see what your blood sugar has been doing over a period of months.
Rule out a tapeworm getting some of your nutrition.
Rule out boredom, where you keep thinking of eating because you aren't focusing elsewhere enough.
Rule out hyperthyroidism, though weight gain doesn't typically happen with this overactive metabolizing problem with an overactive thyroid.
Rule out imbalance diet.
How can your blood sugar be 255 at bedtime and fall to 40 at 5:30 am?
t stuff your furnace full of carbs all at once and expect it to hold you, plus your blood sugar will zoom higher when you download alot of carbs all at once.
Plan ahead for snacks. Excellent midmorning and midafternoon snack is a sharp cheddar cheese stick and a handful of pecans. Net carbs for snacks should be 15 total.
I need pleasure from food so don't obsess too far-diet salad dressing is awful IMO-and so I still use my beloved Kraft Thousand Island-2 tablespoons is only 4 net carbs!
These secrete huge amount of insulin in response to food and the person has hypoglycemia or low blood sugar just after eating. Diagnosis is by doing blood sugar levels fating, after food and through glucose challenge test. It is difficult to comment beyond this at this stage. Do consult your doctor regarding these possibilities and treatment options discussed.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
t get any blood she tried 3 times finally she got some blood but it was coming out slow. I almost passed out and got low blood sugar. I was shivering and ice cold. I feel weak most of the time. Get the shivers and cold feeling a lot. I don't know what to make of this. Any suggestions? Doctors don't know what it is.
And I realize McDonald's is very bad for you, but I've never felt this way before after eating fast food of any kind.
Thanks for your help! I appreciate your feedback! I was wondering about the reactive hypoglycemia and if that's what it could be. This lower blood sugar after eating didn't start until my blood sugars were under the normal limits all throughout the day. I realize it wasn't that low but it was lower than what I was used to. Also, I was wondering if you might know about normal insulin levels? She checked my insulin level and it was 6, she said 0-25 was normal???
5, I ate a chicken leg, I am feeling shaky, blood pressure increased, and sugar went down to 9. Due to lack of food, sugar was going up, liver was dumping, chicken leg helped to stop dumping. As soon as sugar will be stabilized, blood pressure will be stabilized. My problem was due to skipping meal, I must have to eat every three hours, atleast a little . But sugar is increasing for that too. I need more insulin, Levemir.
