December 2020

December 2020

My first family MD told me to test my blood sugar twice a day on two different days. I took his advise of testing first thing in the morning on Tuesday and Thursday. My VA Doc changed the second "testing time" to two hours after I finished eating dinner. My three family MDs since 2004 and various VA Docs have agreed with this testing plan.


Kathie is now type 2 as well and is testing on Monday and Thursday. So, I am now testing those days as well.

314My MD ended my evening glipizide pills and my morning scores have gone up. I suppose this is a "good" thing but I rather liked being just above hypoglycemia. 

* I felt sick at dinner last night and recovered overnight. Given how little I ate last night, 141 is ridiceous.


AM 129 PM 88

31 In November, my GP told me my A1C had gone from 7.6 in November 2019 to 6.7 in July 2020 and 6.3 in November 2020. I was taking Synjardy XR 10-1000 mg tab and a glibizide 10 mg tab in the morning. He had me double up the Synjardy in the morning and delete the giobizide. 

Several weeks ago, I dropped one of the Synjardy and gave myself permission to take the glibizide in the evening. 

 So, my scores were 128 in the morning and 88 this evening.

 I suppose I could worry about morning hypoglycemia and not waking up. This is a pointless fear as the “morning bloom” has always woke me up.
