Of a gyzed from 10.9 to 4.9 ...... in three months

Good morning I have my case because in the health center they do not come out of astonishment.In the month of January in a routine analytics I gave a glycemia of 118 on an empty stomach and they already warned me that I had a prediabetes that was taking care of me and will lower weight, I ignored. In May I started with symptoms of diabetes a lot of thirst.Very much and loss of weight if diet.Analytical and Zas 10.9 glycate automatically wanted to put insulin to lower it, speaking with my doctor I proposed to wait a week to see how my body reacted to the diet, either after that week the fasting and postpandrial glymiaAt normal levels, which I miss them very much and they sent the gyrhed to repeat it would not have been that there had been an error, but it did not leave 9 even if the doctors freed him a little in less than 15 days he had dropped almost two points.They contacted an endocrine to comment on my case and said that I had not seen anything like that, it could insinAfter 3 months I had to repeat the glyd and surprise 4.9 and 90 on an empty stomach.Which surprised to the hematologist who asked me for tumor markers (an aquacked week) but nothing normal markers. All this without metformin or anything for the style only with healthy food and going out to walk I have lowered 20 kilos.My center does not come out of astonishment.All the best

@Berna1979: Congratulations!You are on the right track.
Diabetes can be controlled but does not disappear.Short

Basically I adjusted your diet to the needs of your pancreas, you cannot mislead, because your pancreas gives you to X of insulin;If you eat for x great, if you eat x* n, that n times you will have hyperglycemia.

Thank you very much for your comments, a question would be good to ask me the test to see the pancreatic reserve (I don't know if it's called)? I don't know if that will be asked for the head doctor

@Berna1979, yes, there are evidence like the C peptide that gives you the insulin reserve, but how it changes, it does not use much.Add yourself to what you see in the glucometer and in the analytics.

Hello, I wanted to ask how you control the sensor theme with the capillary.In my case I did an analytical where I have left at 8.9 literally fatal on my part because I had a few months of work and I did not take care of myself as I should.I had scheduled the appointment with my endocrine and because they canceled it at the last minute and I find myself in Dubai and I did not trust the doctors here.Now I am full with exercises and eating healthier trying as much as possible not to consume carbohydrates but the sensor plays bad past because many times it marks for prolonged hours hyperglycemia and when I make the capillary I am at normal or lower levels.The worst thing I was trying to get pregnant but of course I have to lower the A1C so I have postponed it.You can guide me a little, thanks.

@Omomaira The sensor cannula detects the glucose of the extracellular interstitial fluid, so that if you are little hydrated the glucose concentration will be greater in the detection and will give you an upward reading, and vice versa with the overhydration.
Then, the place and amount of fat you have in the place where you carry the sensor, it is also important.
Finally, there is a temporary period between hair and interstitial reading and sometimes in those ten minutes things have gone through intake or insulin.
Greetings

Hi @pinkman
To learn a bit, do you know any serious study that relates the state of hydration (and how is it measured) and body fat with the measurement of interstitial sensors?Do they really have a significant influence?

I say it because in the critical patient (which is not a normal patient), in which there are important changes in the interstitial fluid (by increasing capillary permeability, the volume of the interstitial fluid increases regardless of the state of hydration and changes the composition), the composition is changed), it isHe is seeing more and more that interstitial meters have a good behavior.I am surprised that a healthy person has significant variations in interstitial fluid according to the degree of hydration, the truth.

On the other hand, sharing that precisely capillary meters do not measure glucose directly, but they undergo an enzymatic reaction that generates hydrogenions, and according to the resulting pH it indicates a glycemia or other value.In this case, the factor that influences the most is the variation of pH, which luckily our body "knows" regular thanks to the bicarbonate buffer system (and hence the dehydration is not severe there is no lactic acidosis due to hypoperfusion).I do not know if interstitial meters work the same, it is something that would be interesting to know because in this case the production of muscular lactate during anaerobic exercise would have a lot of weight.

PS: This comment is in constructive tone and to really learn, it is not to look for any discussion.

Hi @Pau91 Glucose detection in the CGM is performed TB with oxidase or dehydrogenase glucose enzymes or others.
There are more factors that affect precision, such as the inflammatory reaction to the input and fixation of the sensor.
On what you say about the pH in the capillary case, I am not sure it is so (without the intention of pooling 😀).
There are studies, I will leave you here the link to some.

@Omomaira The only way that I know to be able to correct the sensor's values ​​is with another mobile application that reads the sensor continuously and through introducing values ​​of the capillaries, try to correct and adapt the sensor readings.
I consider that I have good control for years using this application.Diabox

@Pau91 and @Pinkman regardless of the chemical processes of our bodies, the most important thing are the ABBOTT or DIABOX calculation algorithms.That is, the interpretation made by the software of the data taken by the interstitial fluid sensor and then the reading that is made of them for us and by our toilets when we give them values.

It is worth very much for explaining it to me because it is really exhausting me.In my case I am super thin, the maximum that I can weigh are 54kg no more from there.THANK YOU!

@pinkman Ah it is worth very thank you for explaining it now I understand a little more in my situation I have always been super thin the maximum that I achieve in kilos are 54 so imagine my body fat index 😂 I usually be in less than 17.

True @ruthbia, in the free 2 the algorithm would give to write a book (with its good things and its bad and very bad things).Once I tried free 3 and gave me the feeling that by making more frequent measurements the algorithm affected less to the values ​​that come out in the app, but beyond the sensation I cannot say much more.

@Pau91 A lot of roll and a lot of book but you have not yet presented a test or study or something that shows that of cetosis with normal values, to ketoacidosis can be passed in hours.

@Omomaira then surely that, with so little fat (less than 20% in women is rare) the inertia of depletion/absorption of interstitial fluid is higher than normal.
Try overhydrate a little and dehydrate (a tad, after playing sports.
@Ruthbia is important, well, everything is my way of seeing, in the end glucose readings are the result of a metabolic regime
