Hi, on April 16 I was hospitalized for salmonellosis and discovered my diabetes.Ingar with more than 500 glucose in urine and 280 and blood.I am injecting daily 30 intermediate insulin units (Humulin).At the moment I follow the same diet and physical activity but my glucose goes between 91 in the morning to 184 when bedtime and varies a lot from day to day.Is it normal or am I doing something wrong?Thank you

Welcome Saraester, I am 49 years old and 4 days, hehehe and debut 14 years ago (I also debut late)

Glucose levels will never be moving around for example 90-110.Vary a lot.The target levels will always be lower on an empty stomach and before meals than the target levels after meals.I imagine that now you will be frequently going to an endocrine and an educator who will guide you in this new world that opens to you and that you do not know (food theme, hydrates, rations, insulin units, exercise, etc.) The best thing is that you are pointing at the analysis on the leaves that have given you and then with them you gradually adjust the insulin.Each one is a world and none are the same.

I only recommend 3 things, read, read and read a lot.You have reached the right place and surely you learn a lot here

@Saraester Do you have declared diabetes?
At first it will be great, because you are on the honeymoon ... but calm, calmly ... everything will go well :)

I also stand 12 :) I'm already starting to think where to go to dinner and what extra rations could he hehe

Saraester, I also debuted late, well at 30 and I have 40 (still for a few days :)), and after 10 years I still have the changing values, since my day to day is never the same, that if working all daySitting, that if the weekend walking, or by bike, that if the nerves, that if the activity, that if one day you take your nap, that if another day I would have to get up early to prick ... especially tranquility and as they say, read, readMuch and go watching you, each person is a world.encouragement

@Valky I can not agree with you ... Each body is a world ... to me the situations of stories date me in 500 and I click that it clicks you and does not go down!

I don't know if I will go out but I think this is the last one not being a mother .... so my mother Miaaa!

Alternative medicine?Q does not work!We need insulin and there is nothing else!I take probiotic for colds, Tila, Valeriana, Postiflora for nerves, gingsen as a caffeine substitute .... already for diabetes insulin.That nobody sells your motorcycle that a 14 -year -old girl died a few years because according to the Cantamañanas "I was hooked to insulin" and all the symptoms that had to pass was because of the monkey ... she asked for insulin and herParents asked him to be strong ... The dead girl and the parents and the healer in jail!

Hi Saraester and everyone.
It is curious that there are more and more cases of "almost older" people with diabetes 1.
And more weird that there are no family history, as is my case.
For a few months, when I was 50 I started having vision problems, and in the optics they told me to go to the doctor, and after an analysis, I was completed by diabetes of the fatto the minimum that felt something strange physically.And as I have already heard and read many times, there are people who do not know they are diabetic.
Not resounding!to alternative medicine.And yes, to pay attention to the endocrine and educator.

Greetings
