Avatar m tn s thyroid and blood sugar is totally inadequate. Even at 350-400 her blood sugar is WAY too high.
Avatar m tn 'if i stop to take insuline and found sugar 500 +, what can i do?' Do yourself a BIG favor, Google search 'Ignoring Complications of Diabetes' and 'How to manage/control high blood sugar', then hopefully you can make lifestyle adjustments to lower your glucose levels. Go see a diabetes nutritionist to learn and understand what you can and cannot eat. Finally, please do not stop or adjust your medication without your doctors consent.
Avatar m tn Hi Kumarqwp, that does seem strange. Here is an article from MedHelp.org about blood sugar, exercise and diabetes; typically your sugars are more in danger of going down with exercise than going up. Hopefully SuperSally88 our CL will come along; she is an avid exerciser and may have advice for you! http://www.medhelp.

Avatar n tn His blood sugars are NOT fine. A fasting level of 121 mg/dl is prediabetes.
Avatar m tn I had been on statins for 2 years, and four years later I just had my complete blood test. My LDL was 194 and my trigycerides came in at over 500! My doc increased my statins to 40 mg/day for 6 weeks to see what happens.............. My left arm is sore..........but no chest pain or jaw pain. How serious is this? I am have muscle pains in my thighs, suffer from extreme fatigue, and do not sleep well.
Avatar f tn Your blood sugar level is supposed to go up and down, especially after you eat and during the time you are asleep. The best mesure of how your blood sugar is doing is a test called a Hemoglobin A1C. This test gives your average blood sugar over the last three months. Your doctor should run the test every three months. I'll bet based on what your takeing that it's a lot better than you think.
Avatar f tn the A1c test is done separetly from your cbc. this test gives the avaerage your blood sugar has been running over the past 2-3 months. if that test was normal than speak with your personal care dr and see if you cant get that label of being "diabetic" out of your medical records. your blood sugar was low in the er so that is why they persued it. if you went in with symptoms of being lightheaded,dizzy etc. then a low blood sugar is prevelant.
Avatar f tn If you are having the one hour glucose test the normal after the drink is 140 and under The 3 hour test should be 180 and under after the 3 hours and if you want to know what your everyday fasting blood sugar level is 90 and under.
Avatar f tn I agree with troytroy that you need to meet with a doctor or diabetic educater to learn the basics of diabetes care. First of all being continually over 130 for fasting blood sugar is too high. Your wife needs to have her doctor evaluate her medication regimen and see if something needs to be changed. Also I'm guessing you don't know much about diet and exercise to help control Type II diabetes and this is very important to learn.
Avatar n tn Hi Michael: Any type of illness will cause your blood sugar to go out of control. So the fact that you have a "bad cold" is probably the cause. That being said, a high blood sugar should be a cause for concern especially if the cold is causing you to not be able to eat or drink fluids. If you get dehydrated, it will cause your blood sugar to go up even higher. So make sure that you're having plenty of fluids and do NOT skip meals when your blood sugar is high.
Avatar n tn 1. randam blood clucose (after breakfast} 165 mg/dl(god-pod method) 2. same day with same blood the HbA1c test shos 6.8% but since 3 days i am feeling some what weakness/drowsiness. what to do. kindly advise me.
Avatar m tn Your doctor should test your HbA1c. This test gives an average blood sugar over the past approximately 3 months. Normal HBA1C is 4.3 - 4.6, with < 5.0 still being acceptable. If your HBA1C is 6 - 7 your blood sugars are too high. If it is above 7 you will be officially diagnosed as diabetic. Diet, exercise and weight loss are all a critical part of management of diabetes.

Avatar f tn Hi, My friend was over stressed before a month, i should say exactly a month before. His sugar level went up to 230. Now one month has passed and his stress level has come down... however, his sugar reading in this month varies like 172 , 160, 152.. all below 140... I have heard the normal level is below 140 for diabetes... but his latest reading is 152. His diet under control, exercising is regular ... Is it something normal?
Avatar n tn I have always, as far as I can remember, had high sugar level results when having my blood tested for annual check-ups. However nothing was ever done about recommendations or advice from the various doctors over the years. Recently after a yearly physical a doctor started me on metformin which made me physically very drained, not tired or weak, but very loose, if that is the right word, and sort of wiped out in a physical sense. The prescription dose was 500 mg.
Avatar n tn Hello , I was just told by a receptionist at the office that my blood sugar level is 6.9 , which is slightly higher than normal but not diabetic.. Can any help on the topic .I have to see my Doc on Monday . I have problems with urination and semen leakage recently and checked for std but all tests were -ve .I also feel too much gas in my stomach and feel extremely uncomffortable .I am only 30 Year old.
1348086 tn?1370783185 What test does your doctor use? If it is a random blood sugar it is virtually useless. Fasting blood sugar is better but still wouldn't catch it if you were spiking after food. The best is to get an A1C which is an average of 3 months worth of blood sugars. You can also get these at a pharmacy and do them at home.
Avatar n tn This is why drinking on an empty stomach can lead to very low blood sugar. Alcohol can cause low blood sugar for up to 12 hours after drinking. All kinds of factors can throw off your blood sugar with unpleasant and sometimes dangerous consequences.
Avatar m tn In January my A1C was 6.8 and my sugar was also borderline. Today 6/31 I checked my sugar using my aunt's meter and it was over 400. This was about 2 hours after dinner. I'm not currently being treated for diabetes. About a month ago I started having severe dry mouth but no other symptoms. I'm currently on vacation and several states away from my doctor. Can I wait a week to see her or should I get treatment right away?
Avatar f tn Since its carbohydrates (sugar is a carb) that raises BG I would expect that replacing sugar with Stevia would reduce BG
