I have just given the results of a blood test that I made by high glucose suspicions;Typical symptoms are very frequent urine and a lot of thirst.The results are clear: glucose 299 and hemoglobin A1c 11.1%.
I am 50 years old, I have prescribed meglee prolonged action insulin, 18 units.
I started yesterday, at 8:30 p.m. I measured the glucose and had 118. I had grilled mushrooms, small amount, and today morning on an empty stomach, the glucose was 258.
I guess it's still very soon to draw conclusions, I've only punctured myself 2 times.
I am quite lost, my doctor has not sent me to the endocrine, yes to the nutritionist, I have an appointment within 1 week.
I have stopped eating sweets, I control myself with the food, I no longer urine at night, nor do I am thirsty.
Hello Enrique, Something similar happened to me even if you have glycosada hemoglobin at 11.1%, surely you have a season with diabetes and only now the symptoms appeared. I would recommend you consult an endocrine on your own.If you tell only with those of social security, the follow -up is going to be scarce, especially now that you still have to understand how your diabetes behaves. In addition, adjustments will have to be made in insulin doses until you find a balance between insulin, diet and exercise. In the beginning I went to the endocrine every 3 months, and as it stabilizes and you learn to control diabetes you will no longer need such frequent monitoring.But right now I recommend that you go, it will be positive not only for your diabetes but also for your mental health.Because so much uncertainty ends up taking its toll
@Enriquegarcia: Welcome to the club. Something that can be of great help for your nutritionist is that you register, during that waiting week, what you eat at the different meals of the day (breakfast, lunch, dinner, ...).It also points the glycemia values that come out at different times of the day (on an empty stomach, before eating and two hours after having eaten).Do not macate your fingers, but it is important to look at your sugar not only when you are fasting when you get up. Much encouragement and although at first you can be a little surpassed with so many things to learn, I assure you that the effort is worth it
With these values, I don't know why it does not derive you to endocrinology. It is to venture a lot that you have a reservation or are in honeymoon. It requires you doctor to ask you for a specialist urgency.The nutritionist does not know of insulin dose. If you go privately, record meals, glycemia values and dose, they will serve the doctor to see your pattern.
I also believe that they should refer you to the endocrine, glycosilada is very high and have to regulate the dose of insulin and teach you how to do it.Also do tests to know what type of diabetes you have. Talk to your doctor to give you the endocrine, and eat the value of glycosilada, which should not be above 7., and that is achieved with a personalized treatment.

Hello Enrique. Apart from what you have been told about the endocrine (it would be important to know what type of diabetes you have for treatment) I tell you that it is normal that you do not go down in two punctures. The insulin they have sent you is slow and it will take at least 10/15 days to see the effects.It helps to go for a walk or any exercise to go down, apart from controlling the food. But as you have an appointment in a week insists that they send you to the endocrine and you are calm. Cheer up..

Thank you very much to everyone.I will insist with the endocrine.
Hello, My type of diabetes is type 2. for now I still injecting insulin, 20 units, a single injection per day.My glucose levels have dropped considerably to about 120-130 on an empty stomach.My doctor advised me to measure my glucose just in the morning, so that I did not overwhelm me.One day I measured it in the afternoon, after exercising, and I was 90. My doctor also told me that if this follows, I would leave insulin, and pass to pills.
Hello, How do you carry insulin and consume alcohol?I tell you my experience, yesterday, Mother's Day, I consumed at the food, 1 beer, 2 glasses of wine and a combined, rum with Coca-Cola, and it is as if I had taken 10 glasses ... I measured the glucoseAt 2 hours of consuming the last drink and had 104 glucose therefore there are no indications of Hicm.In the afternoon, I was with discomfort, hangover, and today I am also with some hangover/discomfort, dizziness. It happens to you?
