I feel miserable right now

[conguitos]

I'm having nausea like sypmtoms, my head is burning and I just measuered 4.2 not a quitea hiipo ut I gess tha after having a morning at 7, crazy idioic pacreas of mine

[AngelKitty]

That's not good, hope you're not coming down with anything, do you have a thermometer to take your temperature?
Sometimes I feel like I'm burning up a bit before I go into a full hypo, but when i ask my husband to feel my forehead he says it feels cool and slightly damp.
Keep an eye on that BGL just incase it suddenly plummets.
Hope you're feeling better soon :)

Probably best to treat and test again in fifteen minutes. Sorry you feel bad.

[Jan B]

By your writing, I'd say you aren't doing well at all. That would be a 75 to me, which can definitely feel like a hypo if you aren't used to being that low.

I'd say get a bit of glucose just to see if it makes you feel better.

Thanks all! I didn't had the time to do the suggested things, as I dropped into my bed and woke up with a slight headache and a 4.4, thanks for your tips, very kind.

Today I was quite on target, 4.4(79) - 5.3(95) - eat - 5.9(106) - 6.2(111) - 6.7(120) - 4.6(82) - 4.5(81) -eat - 5.9(106) - ???

Measuring every hour. The weird thing is that today I didn't feel as bad as yesterday night, having almost the same BG numbers.

Last week, I had a serious one, I wasn't even able to measure. But that was definetly my fault while trying something out...

Thanks again :)

Glad you're feeling better!

Thanks a lot for your support :) I just measured as I felt how the BS was going down, 6.0 to hours ago and measured 3.7 :eek: I measured again 5.0 and then again 4.7, this just after I drank 1 lt of cola zero. But I don't feel bad this time, just a little bit funny in my head, it must be the caffeine :)

Thanks again

You've been diagnosed type 1 Conguitos? It can be confusing to know how to respond as you seem to be pretty sure you are LADA (or "unknown", in which case "Diabetes" forum might make more sense) - yet this is the type 1 forum so I assume there is some relevance.

May I suggest, that you monitor whether this nausia, and unusual hypoing - if that's what you are indicating with all your Bg results here, may be the bitter melon supplement you have been taking for the past week (or whatever it was called.)

Thing is, if you have stabilised BGs in the run of things, you might be putting yourself at risk taking a hypoglycemic agent. There's nothing magical about going low, just danger. Be careful.

Yes I know, last week I gulped a tablet and I had drank a vodka 20 mins before without eating anything, just to see what would happen. I got a a feeling I thought I was going to die, had to lower my head to even be able to reach my bed, then I was there for around 5 minutes with a heartbeat of a horse that has won the grand and everything turning around, even with closed eyes, the next thing I remember is waking up...

But I'm quite reactive to substances, it has been always like that.

4 weeks ago I tried a recipe of mine. 2dl of vinegar, 1 pc of mashed garlic, some whiskey (Jack) and a tip of salt mixed it and gulped it down. Seconds later it was like having thunderbolts running through my lungs, arms, legs, head, an extreme intense pain for a period of time that seemed to be eternal.

I had to dissociate to bear the pain. I can do that in a controlled manner, as a child I had to dissociate quite often when my mother or father went bananas with me, psicologically and phisically.

It's quite interesting, I can be somewhere and have intense pain and you wouldn't notice, I can even talk normally to you.

(Search in wikipedia for Dissociation for more infos, it seems that the link is not accepted because it has brackets)

Glad you're feeling better :)

Thanks AngelKitty, very kind! :)

I make a sista measuring 5.5, I wake up quite dizzy, masure, 3.7! I measure again to see if it's not an error 3 times in 5 minutes 3.5, 2.9, 3.4, I wait 30 min without doing something, just with my pack of dextroenergen (gluco tablets) at hand and one between my lips, measure agagind 3.2.

I eat salmon with salad and measure 30 mins latter 4.7, 30 nins moore 5.4, 1hor 4.6, now 4.3, 3.5, 4.2 and I feel like a pressre on my chest, dizz liike throw up

I think it's time for you to go and see your Dr, feeling this lousy, this often should be properly examined.
To give you piece of mind, find out what's going on and make sure there are no other underlying issues.
I'd check your meter as well (sounds possessed! :eek: )

I don't really know what's happening to me, I'm really confused, today it was again a normal day, without hypos between 6 and 4, I have read about pancreatitis, gastritis, cancer, whatever... I'm extremely confused, was considering going to hospital yesterday but instead I went to a crowded bar so if I had something people would notice, if something happens...

I don't really know what's happening to me, nor know the quaks. Sad, sad, sad...

[shiftzor]

Don't give up use some of your investigative skills to find out what’s going on. I would advice sorting out your basal and bolus doses would be a good place to start. Also getting good at carb counting is also really worthwhile. Keep learning! Hope you figure it all out.

I'm not using insulin. I'm low carbing...

Ay carumba!
I think you should go to the hospital FIRST and then as a reward stop at the bar and have a drink AFTERWARDS. You owe it to yourself to make your health a priority. Trying to guess what's wrong or what may happen next is a dangerous game to play and impossible to predict.
None of us like going to hospital, but sometimes it is a necessary evil.

non-diabetic people's blood sugar does not "stay constant". Variation is part of the normal, functioning system.

This will be about the fifth time I've told you this. It's also one of the first things that anyone learns on starting to look at the issues of what is "normal" and what one is trying to aim for. Not once have you responded with any indication you can learn simple facts about blood sugar and blood sugar management.

If you are not suffering the effect of lows and highs you likely have nothing to worry about. 4 - 6 is within the realms of normal. If non-diabetics tested hourly every day they may well get the kind of variation you've been posting about. Where you show variation out of the norm, is suggestive you should take your condition seriously and utilise tactics to deal, rather than freak out and flail about like a headless chicken.

I repeat, VARIATION IN ITSELF IS NORMAL

Get over yourself and stop creating dramas where there are none. You look like someone but desperately paranoid about their own health and someone desperately reaching out for attention. While I sympathise with such people, you've well and truly used up your credits. Enough is enough.

As for your hypos, are you saying that you are not responding to food to bring you up? What's the problem?

Is there any guarantee that any possible effects from your bitter gourd (or the chromium) will just "stop" overnight?

Have you heard of reactive hypoglycemia as a symptom of encroaching diabetes? (or indeed, can occur without diabetes)

[fairyblood]

Just one quick question. Why is this posted in the type I forum?
We don't need your drama.
