! Hello welcome!I started the same as you, at age 50, and according to them with type 2 diabetes, and with a regime that I gave me I lost a lot of weight, but I did not have Tipio 2, but the 1. I would tell you that if you don't have itOf course you ask for a specialisata, the endocrine.Encouragement and luck.:))

Nieves have only given glycemia data in the predominate.of dinner).

What is happening is that you have a dawn or a phenomenon of dawn quite marked.

The Diagnosis of Nieves seems correct for enough things, the diagnosis that does not seem correct is yours consu, for your age and others everything indicates that you are diabetic type 2, as much the doubt would be if you are of type 2 or is an autoimmune diabetesIn adults (lada).

Hi TNT!If they really thought about the two, but I don't have the 1 (called youth diabetes), and I as a young man!They made me that test that you take a very sweet liquid and in two hours the sugar will be controlled.Rare things that happen.Thanks and Adeu: D

I agree with TNT in the post -compasses, especially at dinner.
By short experience, I know that the day I go to bed with high sugar because at dinner I have not adjusted well, I get up with her too, but if I go to sleep with glucose in its place, I get up well (with thesame dose of slow insulin).
Type 2 diabetics, they only ask them to look at glucose 3 times a day someday (and many times, not that), snow, I would look at me at least a couple of days in a row as you are at two o'clockOf dinner, and to see how you get up, with that I would go to the doctor again, but to a different one because telling you

not eating platano, melon, grapes, sweetWithout more explanations, it's like telling you anything.
The recommendation that I can give you is that you read something about carbohydrates and the absorptions that different foods have.In a type 2 diabetes, you have to avoid rapid absorption carbohydrates because the glucose more fast and your pancreas will raise you will have more difficulty reacting.But I also think that you have to control the amount of hydrates that are ingested, it is very good to tell you that you do not eat sweet, rice little and that they tell you the amount of bread you have to eat up to date, but if you go later, and you eat aPlatazo of pasta, because as if you did not diet any ... try to know, how many carbohyYou eat and in what approximate amount, it seems to me that it can be very useful.

As an example, my grandmother's case, which now that I am type 1 diabetic, I see otherwise.My grandmother told you more or less the same as you, Nieves.But they didn't tell him anything about the bread, and what he did, is that he awarded practically half a bar of bread at each meal, yes, he took the crumb and gave it to my grandfather (his things).To snack, I remember that I took, bread with butter, a good edge of well smeared.Then he replaced the butter with margarine (I think it was a margarine boom).What I see right now, is that I did the diet totally in its own way, the amounts did not control them, and since we did not go to the doctor because we did not know what they said.Now I think that my grandmother is the bad example of how to carry diabetes, in large part, because of the doctors, because they could not tell him more than not eat this and the other, and because of his belief blindly in the doctors(In the villages, at the time, it was like that) and our fault for not implying us anymore and not knowing how diabetes had to be carried.And as a bad example, it has had complications, it started with 55 years being diabetic, and although it now has 82, it has had a serious thrombosis and a heart attack that we thought did not come out, but I do not want to be afraid, I already say that my grandmother is thebad example.

I do not understand how in a type 2 diabetes, which is assumed that the pancreas still retains its function, there are currently many more complications than in a type 1 diabetis that the pancreas is in the last.My reasoning is that if there is currently the ability to deal with type 1 diabetes and avoid complications, why the same does not happen with type 2 diabetes, and what I see is that cases like my grandmother's, there are for all thesidesThere is a lack of information to patients and that doctors get a little more.

I feel the tocho, but I hope to be helpful ...: D

Hello again I am Nieves thanks to Neihs to Consua and TNT I think you are right in everything
An endocrine specialist would be of great help but I have to pay it from my pocket since in the town the family doctor does not see it necessary at the moment since I feel very well does not hurt anything and I work 10 hours a day 363 daysA year he tells me not to worry, I started with 427 mg./dl.On an empty stomach, 3 classes of pharmacists were not good for me, I spent 2 months today I have it badly but better than in a pricio they only send me controls before the meals not later and every 15 days I sign it in a notebook and
That is all the glucometer, a relative gave me because it does not enter the S.S.The strips and lancets are bought in the pharmacy and the attention of my doctor is very good I can go when I want or I have time after working I receive me I have any complaint only that he has told me on the Internet and learn and ask in theVillages is not the same as in capital do not have the same means and thanks that I defend myself a little with the PC Thank you for everything I was also a Diabetica Murio with 99 years, the needle to first ate a tarte of Dulce de Melon and never neverHe was sick tube 16 children and 135 grandchildren all
Well I hope that the same thing happens to me, the people are Miy healthy the food is very natural from the lettuce orchard, tomato ect.Thanks again I am glad to see that you are and be able to learn from you

Type 2 diabetic snows and with gallows to learn.
