Be patient, this goes for times, as soon as you eat and lose weight, as you fat without more.Do not overwhelm on the subject because, sometimes, it's worse.Keep it up, exercise and healthy food and you will see how little by little, everything returns to its place.

Have you done analysis?How do you have glycosylated hemoglobin?Only with these two values ​​can nothing be diagnosed ... Have you gone to the endocrinologist? ... greetings

If it is my result, it was 10.6 and my appointment will again be until April 4 thank you very much.

If you exercise regularly, it is also very important to take good walks and move, that also counts, and you take care of the food you will see how HB lowers you a lot in the following test.It is convenient every three months to control.

As it seems that you have type 2 diabetes (insulin resistance) sport and food will help you a lot.Try to reduce rapid pasta, bread, rice, potatoes, sweets, industrial bowl and sugary juices and drinks.Eat a lot of vegetables and drink chicken, turkey, eggs, fish to feel satiated.It is very important that in each meal you have some carbohydrates of vegetables, protein and healthy fats.Don't go hungry!

When you go to the doctor if you need or have many doubts to send you to a nutritionist.Oh, don't get on diet.Simply change the way of eating.But don't think you're diet.

Do not worry that it has a solution.

All the best

With that glyce, metformin is useless if it does not combine it with other oral antihyperglycemic agents or insulin and by God that they do analysis to determine what type of diabetes you have.Ah !!One of the reasons why hair weakens and falls is anemia, which is detected with analysis.

Thank you very much I will!

Hi @carol_rodri, I am Type 1 but what I do not to go hungry is that when I have as pickups, cheese (Maaasdam that they sell in Mercadona) and Pipas de Mercadona that tell much less than those I have bought from other brands.The same hair loss is due to stress or spring, but look at you.Much encouragement

Thank you very much, really seeing the brush is the most depressing and even though I try to be positive that has affected me even more, I will expect my review with the doctor and that this stage happens

@carol_rodri sees an endocrine, with glyc and insulin value is not enough to determine the type of diabetes.They have to see your gad antibodies.
There are doctors who surely give diabetes 2 per age, but we are many with more than 35 that we debut in type 1.

Eat healthy and for the moments of hunger they eat nuts, glycemia rises little and satiated a lot.The cheeses rise little by little by fat.

The hair, in addition to anemia it can be stress.It would not be bad for a doctor to make you analytics again.

hello.Do you know if it is diabetes 1 or 2?Have you been taking the glucose on an empty stomach and 2 hours after eating?It is quite high that you share from 500+ as well as glucosylated hemoglobin.

I also believe that the metformin of 850 one a day will not do you almost anything, you need a better treatment.

Start by going down to carbohydrates and at least walking daily.Start for 10 minutes.

Have you done other studies such as cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides, uric acid, etc?When glucose values ​​give high and there are certain physical issues (such as some abdominal obesity), studies are usually done to validate the cardiovascular theme, which is important.

I have a cardiologist and when the sugar gives over 200 and there are high bad cholesterol or good cholesterol, send to do a study called ultrasensible reactive protein that measures the probable inflammation of the endothelium, if it is high, you have to medicate urgently forAvoid scare.

We read you.

Hello, I am a rookie like you, I have been since February of this year.It debuts very similar, 271 of glucose and glycosilada of 13 and peak.Then the pills took effect.I already have controlled glucose.I am still aware of the type of diabetes.Did you say that on April 4 to the doctor, what have they told you?

@carol_rodri
Hello.Don't despair.In this there are two things, the treatment and what we must put on our part, taking care of the food and exercising.
If you are surely taking care of the treatment it was not correct.How did it go in the endocrine?
