My doctor did say that if I could not bring my glucose and A1C down, we would have to look at injectibles. He told me go very low carb or carb free diet. Which I am doing.
I did feel hungry at first, the first few days. Now not so much, I hardly think about food. I was just wondering if after 2 weeks that is enough time to see some better results. I know it took time for me to get to this level.
ve sort of put this down to the fact that I had roughly this amount before I went to bed. I tend to drink alot of green tea and black tea sometimes too, usually one big mug before bed. Yesterday I drank 2.5 in the late eveving. However I did empty my bladder before bed but obviously it takes a while for it to be processed as urine?
Reason I say all this, I realise that nocturia is a symptom for diabetes.
I am in the process of weaning myself slowly off of beta blocker-altenolol, was only taking it for 2 weeks. Among the comments there was a mention of a tea that might lower blood pressure--what is it?
I have type 2. My A1C is 5.9. Is honey off limits? I bought some green Arizona tea but has a small amount of honey in it.
My question is this, can you drink sleepytime tea or the sleepytime ension tamer tea while on toprol.. I know the tea does not contain caffeine but Im not sure of the herbs and the last thing I want to do is drink something that will interfere with my beta blocker.. Any suggestions/advice you have will be greatly appreciated.
Today I was told to take an acid blocker by the Dr. What a relief! That was the problem I think. What have you ladies used that helped?
I had one Vada and two Idlys and a Upma in the breakfast, without tea or coffee. The Doctor changed my course of medication. She added two new drugs, viz Dapagliflozin 10 mg, and Rosuvastatin 10 mg.
So far yesterday his readings were fine, up until tea time today he was fine also then at the last reading it was 6.9 before tea. So going by the readings they gave us as a guideline this is just in the normal range, but only just. Have to email the diabetes team tomorrow morning with all the readings so far to get the next plan. They are keeping a very close eye on him which is great but the not knowing one way or the other 100% is awful!
Low carb diet will help her lose weight. It will also reduce her insulin requirements (so she needs to monitor carefully).
There are many online links (you will need to search as I'm not allowed to post links here) if you google low carb and diabetes management.
For an excellent book look for "diabetes solutions" by Dr. Richard Bernstein. I found that book revolutionised how I think about diabetes and how I manage it for myself (all for the better).
My main question is how low can your heart rate get and still be safe? I'm afraid to take a beta block for my hypertension because my hr at night gets as low as 55 without them. I'm 24 years old I have hypertension, I'm active/normal weight I also have LVH from my hypertension. Would it be safe for me to take this beta blocker bystolic My doctor has prescribed me? He said it wouldn't lower it much but from the posts I've seen they do. Thoughts?
Look into a diet for yeast control and brush your tongue with baking soda very gently. Use a tea tree mouthwash. Stop eating sugar and eat organic vegetables, healthy fats like REAL olive oil and REAL organic butter. No soda, no fast food, no high-carb junk foods. There are many ways to control yeast without going on an antifungal medication, which can harm your liver.
I agree with Michelle it wouldn't hurt to get checked out. That said, even decaffinated tea, sometimes herbal tea, depending on what's in it, will increase my heart rate. Sounds like adrenaline might be playing a part here too, with it happening before performances. I just had an irregular beat episode playing fast at a music group. A beta blocker will slow my heart down, but I mostly have to avoid any caffeine. Good luck.
s (like 300)we have him drink alot of water or diet green tea. If he is like 300 and he drinks the diet green tea or water,(like 4 bottles in an hour or so) his b/s #'s start dropping rapidly. Like he could be 300 at 3pm and drink the water or green tea and by 4pm 268 and by 4:30pm 186 and by 5:30 138. Then at 5:30 we will have supper and he will eat carbs and have insulin ratio to carb. Then at 9pm he will be 100. About a month ago this same thing happend and at 1 AM he had a seizure.
