Riddle me this Batman: sorta OT, okay, mostly OT, sugar numbers

[Guest guest]

I've been reading the literature this morning. When you quit smoking your

blood sugar will plummet. At least this is according to a couple of sites

I've looked at this morning. Quit smoking and your blood sugar will fall and

rapidly too.

 

How nice for me. EXCEPT, the past four mornings my sugar levels have been

155, 154, 153 and the final insult this morning was a number so huge I

almost passed out looking at it: ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY FOUR! I've never

even SEEN 194 before and 153 etc? Certainly not when I first get up, usually

a couple hours after I've eaten.

 

apparently smoking is GOOD for me! Wonder if I can get the quack to write me

out a prescription for cigarettes.

Kathleen,

 

Not to intrude in a conversation, but it sounds as though you are having what is

called a Pre-Dawn effect. Your numbers rise just before you wake. I smoke too,

and have been trying to quit. Kinda hard, hubby doesn't want to! (Grrr!) I have

noticed, that when I go a few days without a smoke, my numbers do settle into

the good range, and tend to stay there as long as I don't try to eat everything

in sight! I did have my Dr. write a script for WellburinSR, for the cravings and

mood swings,and it does seem to be helping as long as I keep Diabetic friendly

snack around. (AND keep my hands busy!)

 

God's Blessings~
