I am a diabetic and my doctor told me that if my blood sugar drop below 65 I should take agreed emergency actions which could include an emergency room visit, ingestion of a sweet drink like a cola or quick disolving glucose tablets and continued monitoring of my glucose level.. I am not advising you to do what I do--I am saying see your doctor or PA.
Thats what my provider told me, Again---You need to get specific giudance from your diabetes health care providers.
Why is it that my blood sugar is higher in the morning than it was prior to going to bed the night before? For example: At night it may read 115 (this is approx. 4 hours after dinner, and no snacking). THEN - first thing in the morning, before I've had anything to eat it reads 135. After having breakfast, right before lunch time it may be 85-90. Thanks for your feedback.
Actually with low blood sugar the best thing is an increase in protien. I keep a block of cheese on hand and if mine starts to drop then I slice off a piece and lay down with some water a few mins and it clears up. I have dealt with low blood sugar in all 3 pregnancies now but was not diabetic...oh and my dr suggested powerade or Gatorade to help keep then stable.
Various things can lead to low blood sugars. If you go without eating for a period of time, your blood sugar can drop, or if you exercise strenuously (especially if you do both in combination). If you are on insulin than taking too much insulin for the carbs you are eating can definitely cause low blood sugars and these can be the more dangerous kind because you can drop very rapidly. If you are getting frequent lows, talk to your doctor.

Hello there,
It is perfectly normal for you blood glucose to rise following a meal. Even in people without diabetes, the blood sugar level will rise following a meal. There should be guidelines as to what your blood sugar should be when you are fasting, so make sure you adhere to that. As long as you blood sugar is well controlled overall (evidence by your blood glucose sticks) you should be fine.
My twin (a type 1, like me) has a damaged adrenal system, and her blood sugar levels drop drastically when she overdoes her work and taxes her adrenal system. Her other symptoms are fatigue, a shakiness that is similar to that which you feel when hypoglycemic, and sometimes a racing feeling when her body is trying to produce cortisol. She also will show real blood sugar ups and downs when allergies hit -- sharp spikes followed by lows.
t give us much information to work with expect 121 fasting. Go here and educate yourself about diabetes prevention, and diabetes control and management. Also, follow what your doctors says to do.

While you have shown improvement, your blood sugar is still elevated. Diabetes can often be managed with lifestyle changes, but you want to continue to track your blood sugar to make sure it continues to improve. It is important to remember that elevated blood sugar can cause damage to your kidneys and other organ systems. That is why it is so important to get your levels down.
