Take your insulin, then eat your dinner, then test your blood sugar 2 hours after starting to eat dinner. Your blood sugar should ideally not be higher than 40 units above your predinner number (ie. 140).
Don't eat anything further (unless you go low early) and then test again at 3 and 5 hours. If you are low by 5 hours you will need to take a lower dose of insulin the next evening - reduce by say 2 units.
It is slightly low but within range. The normal is anywhere between 70-130 and being that you had a fruit smoothie it should of been a little higher. I would just keep an eye on that and the blood pressure. Just mention it to the doctor to see what they say. It doesn't sound to alarming but enough to mention. Good luck.....
As a type 1 diabetic for 34 years, I can tell you that different doctors will give different ranges as perfect levels to aim for. Most don't consider you too low until the glucose drops below 70. I personally can feel slightly "off" when glucose is below 75, but don't feel truly bad until it drops below 70, so I would not worry about a glucose of 94 being too low. The range I have been given as "normal" is anything between 70 and 126, which is a pretty broad range.
What is the ideal blood sugar range during 34 week. My post meal is around 140.
It is also possible to have elevated blood sugar if you fast for a longer than usual period. It is good that your subsequent tests were ok.
Anyway, use this as your motivation to stay healthy. Minimize sugar and processed foods, exercise.
A regular check of blood sugars every once in a while (and certainly every 6 months) is a good practice so you can monitor yourself over time.
Yes, there is a difference between Total and Free T3... Most of the T3 in your blood is bound by protein and can't be used; only the Free (unbound) T3 can be used by individual cells... When you measure Total T3, you're measuring, both bound and unbound T3, but when you measure Free T3, you're measuring only that which is Free to be used by the cells.
Does anyone know if issues with their thyroid has caused problems with their blood pressure?
I have always thought I have low blood sugar. But recently one of the doctors I saw gave me a glucose monitor to check my blood sugar. Every time I've checked my blood sugar it comes back around 80 - even fasting it comes back around 80.
I noticed my blood sugar never goes above 120. It doesn't matter how much sugar I consume. Most of the time it is in the 80 to 90 range even after eating. Today I ate a breakfast burrito and had orange juice. My blood glucose was 92 thirty minutes after eating. Sometimes it will fall in the 60 range.
My fasting blood glucose level was around 80. It seems like my body overcompensates when I consume sugar. Do you think I have reactive hypoglycemia?
My blood sugar had dropped and I was dehydrated. For the next 4 weeks I alternated between having very loose stools to constipation accompanied by bloating. On my return trip to the doctor he checked me for parasites and redid my glucose test which was only at 57 after eating. They tested for blastocystis hominis in three different samples all of which were positive. The doctor put me on Flagyl which I was only able to take for three days because of severe adverse side affects.
However at this range it is also better to start with medications for diabetes to bring down the blood sugar levels. Please consult an endocrinologist for the same.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
You want to then determine what is the maximum blood sugar you get after eating. This may range between 30 and 120 minutes after eating (though most drs will recommend testing between 90 - 120 minutes after starting eating). You can determine your personal testing time to catch your peak blood sugars by eating a regular meal and then testing every 30 minutes for say 2.5 hours. The peak blood sugar measured will then tell you your testing time.
If every time you test you get a reading like you had you should put a call into whoever is wanting you to monitor your blood sugar because they will want to get those numbers back into a normal range through either diet changes or through the use of insulin. You are not in any danger but the baby is being affected by the high numbers because of the over use of its tiny pancreas which results in an over nourished baby which tends to result in a larger than average baby.
But this morning I got really lightheaded and a headache all of a sudden(which I know is normal in pregnancy) but I checked my blood pressure again to see if that was it, and it was perfect. So I checked my blood sugar and it was 79, I had just had a fruit smoothie. The medical assistant at work told me it was low, and then another told me it was slightly low. My question is does anyone know what it should be? I go to the Dr tomorrow so I will ask him, but I'm just curious.
I'm a type 2 diabetic, 69 yr old ,man, and for years I have been able to keep my daily blood sugar/A1C well with normal range. This was when I was working - now that I'm retired, and because I became sedentary my A1C rose from 6 to 7.2 and my daily morning readings jumped to average 150 ml. Now I do daily treadmill walking exercises plus some weight training in the gym and find that after 1.5 hour of exercising my sugar goes up 50-80 points.
