I've been doing so good restricting sugar and starch but the carbs are killing me and making my glucose so erratic. My numbers are so unpredictable, almost double and triple above normal.
I'm beginning to recognize my glucose is above 280 without testing because of the fuzziness in my head & really bad cotton mouth.
Regardless of what I've eaten and how little it was I continue to see high numbers. I tested my glucose 5 times today. The first time I tested today was around 9:00 a.m. , it was 170. Another high reading and I hadn't ate anything .
My sugar did drop to 50 today but I finished the day off at 304 I know I can't do this alone. I need help. Watching what I eat and restricting sugar intake is only awarded with high glucose levels.
I ate a southwestern salad with grilled chicken for dinner. The dressing was low calorie and low fat but had 3g of suger. I ate around 1,000 calories today.
For breakfast I had 2 slices of wholewheat toast & 1 tablespoon of peanut butter. Lunch 2 small slices of pizza. I also drank 2 servings of Diet Dr Pepper, which has no calories, sugar and carbohydrates.
I am afraid to eat anymore and I'm so hungry. I need to get my calories back up without causing a major spike with my glucose.
Uncontrolled Diabetes can be fatal.
This week I need to.....
* call and set up a Drs appointment
*see how much the appointment will cost since I will need to pay cash
* see how much a fasting blood sugar test cost with the Dr or at the laboratory.
