    Holy Shit! How are you even still alive?

    My morning reading has been averaging around 148 but I'm a Type 2, A1C last week was 6.0 which is a lot better than it's been in a while.

      wow thats scary. Are you on insullin? What do you take? If my mornings are running extremely high I adjust with more Lantus at night. Go to your endo asap. You need adjustments. I am a type 1 though and insullin dependent

          Don't eat after 9 pm?
          Exercise a bit before you go to bed?
          I take l-cartine 1000mg before bed -- no proof that it helps the insulin resistance
          All of this dropped my morning readings 163 to 129. So: -20% (at best)
          That is a scary number ... almost 600

            You're probably thinking of A1c, long-term glucose measurement

              yeah, i'm a type 1 too, but have super huge (brittle) glucose swings and still very insulin sensitive, so it's a nightmare sorting it out, using lantus + regular and we;re trying different times to fire the lantus, on account of my over night time readings are like a roller coaster, actually trying a bit of carbs right before bedtime to see if that evens things out overnight.

              got things back to 115 already now.

                You're thinking of average penis size in humans.

                    yeah I go through bad periods as well. I do lantus in the morning and at night then I am on novalog on a scale. Seems to work for me but as much as i can keep stable it always fucks up in some way or another. Fucking Diabetes I hate it.

                      Jesus Christ Dyno. That's terrible.

                      Did you feel that it was high before you took it? What do you do when it's that high? Work out?

                          exactly, right?

                          just when a scale starts working, it all the sudden don't and then a mad scramble to find something that works. I just stop eating entirely, drink a shit ton of water and start back eating slowly. doc always wants to attack it with insulin first, more more more. fuck that.

                          had no different feeling at all, good news is i didn't spill any ketones over, i do have a pretty high level before that happens, like 800, but when that does happen, i'm pretty much completely out of it.

                            yeah eat healthy fucker! haha


                            I'm surprised you can even get those kind of readings. I'm assuming you are still doing intermittent fasting to some degree? doesn't that normally keep things in check? I recall you being even more extreme than I was doing it ie 18 hour fasts and up.

                              i know, right? he's trying to troll too hard.

                              yup, i IF every day, and last night/this morning are no different than my usual routine. i still have not eaten today, last meal lat nite was chicken breast, parmesan rissoto and cole slaw at 7pm. i'll fast for the rest of the day.

                              it totally keeps things in check, but even without food my glucose is squirrely. but after 32 years of working on it, IF is what keeps it in check the best, combined with diet, activity and injections of course.
