Just how do you know if your blood sugar is high today?
The only way I know of is to use a meter, but with no past history, you would not have the need for one. |

Eating cinnamon has been shown to decrease blood glucose levels and decrease insulin resistance. Eat a teaspoon or two a day. That's also a weight loss strategy.

I got a free meter a couple years ago. went to the doc and had blood work done and it was a little high he said. I checked today when I woke up and the meter read 166. Is that really high? I've been losing weight and have my bp under control. What are some ways to get it under control, I do not want to start medicine if I can help it, I know things only go down hill from there. Quoted:

QFT! I was diagnosed as a type 2 diabetic almost 1 full year ago and, all in all, it hasn't been all that bad but I have to watch my diet and I have to take my prescriptions everyday. I did real good last fall and into the early spring but I got off the track during the summer and I'm just now getting my high glucose number back into a decent, manageable, area. Look at it this way––––-go see a doctor and have yourself checked out. That's better than going into some sort of diabetic shock or losing your vision or increasing your chances for suffering some other diabetes related complication. If you are a diabetic then it doesn't mean the end of the world. It is manageable and you can live a pretty normal life but you just have to watch your sugar and carb intake, take your medicine, monitor your blood and try to get a little bit of exercise each day. Actually, it sounds harder than it really is (at least that's been my experience as a type 2er). My biggest fault is I don't get the right amount of exercise each day. Managing my diet has been easy and the medications biggest side effect (at least so far) has been diarrhea. Monitoring my blood takes about 5 minutes each day. |

Low carb diet, also I have heard that some people have had good results taking chromium. I'd be leary if your doctor prescribes medicine that forces insulin production. High insulin levels will bring its own set of problems, so if you can get it down any other way, do it.
Dr. Michael Eades, who wrote Protein Power, made this comment on his blog: "I can say that at this time most scientists believe that the root cause of insulin resistance and type II diabetes is a defect in the insulin receptor caused by an intracellular accumulation of fat. The question is, what causes the intracellular accumulation of fat? We know that one thing for sure does: fructose. Carbohydrates in the diet cause the liver to produce more VLDL, which in turn leads to increased levels of triglycerides and increased intracellular fat. I would put my money on the theory that overconsumption of carbohydrates, especially fructose, is the culprit." Take a hard look at how much fructose you have been consuming. |

Quoted: Eating cinnamon has been shown to decrease blood glucose levels and decrease insulin resistance. Eat a teaspoon or two a day. That's also a weight loss strategy. This is good advice and it does work, but to varying degrees for each person. However, it will not allow you to go and eat a bag of candy. Stay away from high glycemic level carbs such as rice, rice cakes, rice crispies, etc. These will raise your blood sugar much higher than most other carbs that you consume. Also, corticosteroid treatments(used to reduce inflammation) will cause you to have very high blood sugars for several days, possibly as long as a week, but eventually your sugars should return to normal.

I'm going to disagree that a single "fasting" (when did he eat the night before?) blood glucose level, from a meter of unknown quality, with 2 year old test strips, means you have diabetes.
Do you present any other symptoms? After a meal, are you light headed? Does drinking soda or juice, or eating a lot of starches make you sleepy? Sweating? Do you have trouble speaking, or get shakes? Have your A1C level checked. No MD is going to diagnose you with diabetes based on one blood sugar reading. Get some fresh test strips for your meter, and begin doing a daily blood sugar check when you wake up. Keep a log of the values presented. If you want to bring your blood glucose down, and you're NOT diabetic, it's a simple matter of reducing your carbohydrate intake, mainly your simple carbohydrate intake, and increasing exercise. More oatmeal, less frosted sugar pops. FWIW, prior to trying to alter my lifestyle and be a healthier individual, I would routinely have 115-125 blood glucose levels. Since losing about 40 lbs, maintaining an exercise level, and eating more complex carbohydrates, I routinely test at 80 in the morning before breakfast. |

I have a co-worker (who is an MD) who is a diabetic (and a marathon-runner). He does not attempt to manage his diabetes himself –– he has an internist who does that for him.
If your glucose is 166, it's time to call your doc for back-up, if for no other reason than to have your glucose re-checked. Do not attempt to handle this yourself. |

My A1C results were around a 13 or 13.5, IIRC. I had a new A1C test just last week and it came in at 8.5 and my doc says she wants me to shoot for 7.0 or less by the end of the year. I also need to lose about 50 pounds of excess weight. For me, the weight loss will be the hardest part. My symptoms last year was excessive thirst, excessive urination, dry mouth and fatigue. When I got started on my prescriptions my eyesight went to hell, too, and my eye doctor said that was due to my glucose level dropping so far so fast in a short period of time. I started in the low 700's and in a period of about 2 weeks it went all the way down into the low-to-mid 100's and my eye doctor said that a massive, quick, drop like that would cause my eyes to be blurry as they adjusted to the new glucose levels. I spent about a 2 week period of time basically blind. Reading small print was practically impossible for me. |

Now you've had a long list of good advice, really bad advice, and the usual GD comedy to read.
You should have an appointment set up by now, either with your regular doc or an endocrinologist. During your meeting, tell the doc you want to see a dietician. The dietician will give you more educational info about the nutritional component of treating your diabetes, and train you to estimate portion size without screwing around with measuring cups and scales. Excercise makes a huge difference. Just a nice casual walk helps. Get the weight off. You'll have to rely on your doc for advice about the medicine you take. Pay attention to the side effects. Most likely he'll want you to test three times every day, at least for a while. |

Quoted: Technically, a low carb diet that induces ketosis should stabilize blood sugar levels by its very nature. Hi Mr-T, Are you diabetic? Just curious, not trying to start anything. The ketosis raised a flag for me. When I checked that fountain of knowledge wikipedia, (I was too lazy to start going through my medical literature) I found the article below. I guess I was thinking acidosis. I agree with the low carb diet and I do that myself. KetoacidosisAll ketone bodies are acidic, but, during normal conditions, the blood can buffer to keep the pH of the blood within normal range. Severe ketosis that causes blood pH to drop below 7.35 can occur as an effect of diabetes or alcohol poisoning, causing an acidosis, more specific, ketoacidosis. Ketoacidosis is a medical condition usually caused by diabetes and accompanied by dehydration, hyperglycemia, ketonuria, and increased levels of glucagon. The high-glucagon, low-insulin serum levels signal the body to produce more glucose via gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis, and ketone bodies via ketogenesis. High levels of glucose causes the failure of tubular reabsorption in the kidneys, causing water to leak into the tubules in a process called osmotic diuresis, causing dehydration and further exacerbating the acidosis. |

I can only speak for myself.
Cinnamon? cinnamon only works for people that have diabetes due to a chromium deficiency. It DOES NOT help everyone with diabetes. I have found that exercise right after eating lowers my blood sugar. I suspect that the body needs to burn the sugar before it can attach to the red blood cells. Once the sugar attaches to the blood cell, you have lost the ability to help yourself. If I exercise without eating, my blood sugar rises! My theory here is that my body is converting fat into sugar to "feed" my muscles. My advice: learn to exercise right after eating if possible. I have recently begun working out with my daughter. I was using a treadmill for 30 minutes but I am now doing muscle building exercises. I am noticing that my blood sugar is dropping faster with muscle building than cardio. That may be just me though. I theorize that my muscles are burning sugar all day long instead of just burning sugar during the exercise. I'm not fully convinced of that though. Find what works for you. I also starting eating less food. We are told to eat mostly carbs in diabetes class but I try to avoid them anyway. Look at labels and get used to looking at them. Try and limit your carbs to 60-75 a meal. I heard that alcohol lowers sugar levels. I looked into that and tested it in my diet. I found that ONE beer WITH the meal helps lower my levels. It does not work after or before the meal. I only know that it does work (for me). Things I learned: There is no such thing as borderline or pre-diabetes. You either are or you are not. Anything else is controlled or uncontrolled diabetes. I read that your meter is a few years old. Are you sure it is calibrated? They provide a serum with the meters to make sure the meter is giving good numbers. |

Ketosis and Ketoacidosis are two different things.
Ketosis is something that almost everyone experiences on a daily basis. It is simply fat being broke down by the liver and released as ketones into the blood to be used as fuel. In a healthy person, it is a regulated process, and is no big deal. Ketoacidosis is an unregulated release of ketones into the blood in type 1 diabetics, because of the absence of insulin. It is dangerous, but it is not a threat for a healthy person. |
