| I've been really great about my diet in the last few months. I was getting really sick eating bad foods. I've always been a carb fiend. French bread, bagels, english muffins, etc. But I've stopped most of those besides the whole grain stuff (which I don't like as much, haha). I eat a lot of veggies, fruit, chicken and lean beef. I occasionally indulge in treats, but have steered clear the last few weeks, and eaten plain graham crackers with natural pb instead.
I outlined a bunch of symptoms and about the times at which they started. The more I read, the more I get nervous. It even mentioned mouth sores...this last year I've gotten numerous canker sores (3 at a time in most cases), and I've NEVER gotten them before. I'm thirsty a lot, and after I eat I go to the bathroom at least every half hour or 20 minutes. My friends are actually getting concerned!
I've had a really good day today, and I didn't eat any sugar, and eaten really healthy food (my mom got a diabetes cook book and is cooking foods for me, which is awesome). I got a blood testing kit at the pharmacy and did 3 test strips which all came normal today. Before dinner I was at 95, an hour after I was at 91, and same with two hours after (91). I know those are normal numbers, but I also read that with LADA, you can have normalish numbers and still be diabetic. I just think with everything else going over the last year that there is something wrong. I'm really hoping my doctor tests, I will be very disappointed if he doesn't believe me. |
