| a hard day on the path to control.... I know I'm new here, and I hope you guys don't mind my venting a bit. I spent the weekend working on eating the amount of carbs that the dietician suggested and watching my bs steadily rise. I woke up this morning at 300 after a horrible nights sleep.
I called the dietician, and she pretty much freaked out thinking I was near needing hospitalization. She wanted to contact my endo herself to see how he wanted to handle correcting this...and I was glad to let her.
I ended up bumping up my humalog through the days meals, and I got it down to 180 before dinner, which I thought was great....then two hours after dinner I was at 90...which is a little low for two hours after dinner from what they tell me.
So, I've been on the blood sugar roller coaster today, from top to bottom and I am thoroughly exhausted.
Neither the dietician nor I ever heard from the endo, so I guess he didn't find this situation as alarming as she did.
I'm just going to keep plugging away here. I know good control can't be too far away. (surely!)
Now a question....
I've never been this low when it was time to take my Lantus. I'm going to have a snack when I take it here in a minute...just wondered about anyone else's experience.
Thanks for letting me unload.
