Blood sugar high morning type 2
Common Questions and Answers about Blood sugar high morning type 2
blood-sugar
4.4 (80) is a normal fasting blood sugar level. Am I correct that this number was your morning fasting number?
If your fasting blood sugar is consistently at this level, maybe you need to take your Metformin in the morning with breakfast to help with your meal time numbers (and not before you sleep).
What is you Hba1c? Why were your prescribed metformin? What was the result that resulted in it's prescription?
Please come back and let us know.
This would involve evaluation of c-peptide, antibodies, and insulin levels correlated with blood sugar levels. Type 1 is lack of insulin (and needs injected insulin), Type 2 is plenty of insulin, but there is insulin resistance and the insulin is not effective. For Type 2, oral meds may be appropriate.
If it is adult onset type 1, it may develop quickly. Therefore, I suggest your read up on syptoms of both type 1 and type 2 and if you develop symptoms then you must go to your Dr.
Your morning glucose levels indicate type 2 diabetes. Try not to eat starchy foods or foods loaded with carbohydrates at night. They turn into sugar after digestion. And no late snacking. The "throughout the day" has no meaning unless they were 2-3 hours after a meal. The sometimes of "192, 263" are high and entering the dangerously high zone.
The times to test are mornings before breakfast, before each lunch and dinner meals and 2-3 hours after each meal.

I m Type-1 diabetic from last 15 years and my blood sugar level used to be under control but from last 2 Weeks, my sugar level fluctuates a lot. Fasting blood sugar is nearly around 300 : before dinner around 500 and after dinner its around 400.There is no change in my diet,exercise or my daily routine pattern. Even I take short acting insulin(novorapid) when my sugar level goes beyond 300 but it doesn't make much difference.
I m really worried.
1) If you are eating your dinner later than usual, then change to eat no than than 7 pm. 2) If you are having a high fat bedtime snack, change what type of food that you are eating that will still give you both carbs and protein. 3) Set your alarm clock for 3 am, check your sugar, and write it down in a log to discuss with your doctor. Only your doctor can really determine what is going on with your blood glucose, but it helps to have already taken the above steps.
Hi Good afternoon friends, I am type 2 since 1996. Taking Diamicron 60mg in the morning before break fast and metformin 500 mg morning/afternoon and dinner. Walking 30-40 minutes every day evening. Today fasting sugar was 140 but after doing yoga for sometime I rechecked fasting which was 186. I drank only plain water. Anybody can help me why this happens.
It really depends if u need insulin or pills, if you cant control your blood sugar then you take pills if your blood sugar is not high. But if normally your fasting numbers are high then thats why they put you on insulin. I have a coworker that went straight to insulin and shes a diabetic now but her numbers were crazy high like in the 500 when she did the glucose test. The doc just prob know that pills wont help you.
I don't know very much about the meds and dosing for Diabetes but if what your taking isn't lowering your blood sugar to a normal level you should really consult your physician. This can cause serious irreversible damage to your kidneys among other things. Make sure you are filling your diet faithfully. I have heard that cinnamon capsules can help with diabetes. You can ask your dr if it would help you in addition to your meds or maybe he may want to switch your meds.
Please see your Dr if you are not on meds. If you are on oral meds and having blood sugars this high, you may need to be on insulin. You should also see your Dr. about this.
If you are already on insulin then you should increase dose, as instructed by your care provider.
Controlling dietary carbs, exercise, avoiding sugars may also help in bringing blood sugars down.

Herbalife makes a number of shakes, none which you identified as your meal. Read the nutrition label. Some have minute amounts of sugar and carbs others not. For example Herbalife - Shake-Formula 1 Fr Vanilla has 13 grams of carbs but 9 grams of sugar, a little over a heaping tablespoon of sugar....not healthy.
s a much less common phenomenon called Somogyi effect where a waking high blood sugar results from our blood sugar having plummeted overnight -- then the liver causes glucose to be released to counteract that low.
Here is a good explanation offered by someone at UCSD:

While I'm not a physician (no one here is), I've learned how to "test" what's going on.
