I want to ask you a doubt that I have as you know my husband is diagnostic type 2 diagnosis in April will do two years.
So far everything the last "glyc" came out of five with five and the previous one of 5 with 9.
I took metformin in the morning and at night but it has been taking it for 4-5 months when you feel like it, once a day, day without another.
This Christmas has not had any type of control for diets and normal the only thing that avoids food sweet.
Well, we had a measurement from the day of Kings, he gave him a measurement and came out at 66, ate a large piece of chocolate nougat and a half small bottle of Coca Cola ia the 2 hours had 100.
Since then continuous measurements are being made daily, without taking medication and eating everything and that 100 -110 - 112. Today a good dish and a good piece of cake ate 2 hours. 142.
As I said for a long time I took the metformin how it wanted but now I do not take it and the values I see very low.
2 years ago when they told him that he was diabetic type 2 the maximum he had were 150 - 160 without eating sweet and now he has it lower eating everything.
Could there be an error in the diagnosis?
What is it that now without medication and eating sweet has the low levels?
I hope you will tell me something that makes me understand this change.
Hi @lazalop, reviewing the case, some doubts arise, the first is if at this time it has lost weight significantly, since in cases of type 2, one of the important factors is overweight, in fact, there are cases of reversionof diabetes for this reason (bariatric surgery).
Hi @fer. On the contrary, he has taken the occasional kilo (one more size). Now it has been measured on an empty stomach (it has risen at 8'30 and it is 10'00, without exercise, and has given 140. Last night the dinner was from Lomo, Café and Chupito Spracts (that and something else, this Christmas has taken alcoholic beverages, which usually does not take).
@fer, but ......... would it be the opposite, right ???? It would rise the levels, it would not lower them. And drink alcoholic beverages, I do not mean cubatas and others, but to wine and some pacifier after meals.
It depends on what will take, the first effect of alcohol is the climb, but then does the opposite, if the glucose has been looked at at that time it could be the case.
In any case, it is best to consult with your endocrine, but from what you explain paint for a specific effect.
@fer, My husband, son, does not carry the endocrine is carried by the nurse, not even the doctor. And the reviews are made when we want, she quotes us at most once every month and a half. And I can already thank that at least this nurse gives the strips so that the at home is controlled that we had before gave meter or strips or anything.The doctor the last time we were put in its history that it was not necessary that it will be controlled that therefore you should not give it or meter.And the why the nurse is also diabetic and knows that the thing is going but if not even that. I had to buy a meter and fight until they change nurse so that it gave the strips. So little will tell us the endocrine jijijijijiji. Thanks for your interest @fer.
142 at two hours after eating is a clear diabetes value.
140 on an empty stomach when lifting is a clear diabetes value.
My fasting girlfriend is 80 and at two hours of eating it always has less than 90, even in the McDonals.
Anyway you should comment with the endo.
Anaisabel A good header in diabetes issues is the one who does not think and immediately derives the endocrine. Doing something else is as if I give advice on quantum physics.
A header, good or bad, does not always lead to types 2 to the endocrine, at least where I live.That's why he told Margarita (Lanzalop) that he goes to his doctor again to see if he sends it.
@Anaisabel, thanks wapa. My doctor passes from the subject, if you read, I had record of one needed anything, but nothing, except metformin twice a day. @Arotorias, here do not refer the endo if it is not something very very very ........... look, we said to be sent to Endo to put a regime, and said it was not necessary, that withThe nurse was enough, without doing any previous control or study, and so you can not, because each or needs lime.Minimum, depending on his work and his life and medical and family history, because here not, here the nurse and if the 1500 lime does not work.They put one of 1200 and if not, one of 1000 and if either, the fault is yours that you do well.

Anaisabel A good header in diabetes issues is the one who does not think and immediately derives the endocrine. Doing something else is as if I give advice on quantum physics. 140 On an empty stomach, 142 at two hours and having eaten a good piece of cake I do not know, it depends on the information of each site, in each place that Leo give different information, in some places they give as normal up to 110 and insteadOthers up to 160 in 2 hours depending on the page that is read, this is like each teacher has its booklet. As I seemed to read in the United States the margin is much greater.
With a gyze of 5.5 or 5.9, if you do not take the pill it can rise to you, but if you can give you a hypo.Both things are bad and is in a phase that the doctor has to determine if the remedy is not worse than the disease.
One thing is recommended to diabetics at two hours, which is usually up to 180, or up to 160 depending on who says it.And another is that this is normal in a healthy person.In Dexcom's Facebook groups many health.
And 140 Basal is a mockery, just with that is obvious that he is not a healthy person.With basal exceeding 100 there are two options, or accepting being type2 or joining the millions of unhappy 2.
Fuck there are days that my hemo is 5.4 and already has curves are totally unacceptable in a healthy person.
@Anaisabel @lazalop that a diabetic puts the treatment and takes the follow -up only a head doctor, instead of someone specialized in diabetes, is very serious even though it is normal in many CCAA.This should fight a lot. It is as if you put a car mechanic to fix airplanes.I have two medical friends and that's why I say it.
@Artorias, you are right in relation to doctors, but no matter how much you fight, if he says no ........... you cannot go on your own, to be private and not. Thank you for your interest.
By the way, as an anecdote to illustrate my point, one of my medical friends is pediatrician in a large hospital in Madrid, and I knew practically anything about continuous measurement systems."Now, is it like a bomb right?" And he is young huh, not a doctor of the year of the pear.That is the formation in diabetes that give in the race gentlemen.And this consultation will pass many children with type 1 ... to cry.
Hello. I think @Arotorias that values between 140 to 200 at 2 hours of eating are not healthy, in that we agree, but they do not correspond to the diagnostic criteria of diabetes.There is talk of prediabetes or postprandial intolerance to glucose.They are the values that I usually handle.
As for fasting values, they are prediabetic values between 100 to 125 included, or 110 to 125 according to the criteria of the ADA.From 126 on an empty stomach is considered orientative of diabetes, but requires reanalizing.
I also agree with you that head doctors can get the bush colossally.Moreover, many do not know the hyperglycemic effects of some drugs that prescribe daily.And about diabetes management, little, very little.I completely agree that you have to always consult a specialist.
In that I am not informed @joejunior, I do not know what postprandral values and what fasting values are considered prediabetes, thanks for the data. In glycosylated hemoglobin, up to 5.6 is considered a totally healthy person, from 5.7 to 6.4 prediabetes, and 6.5 or more diabetes are considered.(Here I explained it with links Link
I rather thought about graphics that I have seen of healthy people (to see if I find any) and in experiments that I do with my partner.
@Arotorias as you say glycosilada.Anyway, I tell you one thing: it doesn't matter if you are prediabetic or type 2, the treatment is exactly the same: Diet + Exercise, if everything goes well, you handle it.So uncle, this is what has touched us :-).
