Changing blood/sugar counts
I have been diagnosed diabetes 2 for some 10 years; changed my lifestyle although not too strict about diet within reasons. Treated with 2 tabs glucophase a day and fasting count of around 6/7 after four hours but wake up with 7/8 count and two hours after meal even 11 count.
What can I do to get back down to under 6 on fasting and under 10 after meals?
George-
You are actually doing okay. I am also diabetic and I was having problems keeping my 2 hour after meal glucose levels down. I would see 8 to 11 after meals and for about 2 weeks. I went back and lowered the amount of carbs I was eating and now my post meal readings are 5 to 8 two hours after I eat. When I eat dinner at night I try to not have more than 30-45g of carbs and I try not to eat a lot of pasta or breads before bed. Now fasting blood glucose levels, try not to eat a snack that is high in carbohydrates and David Mendosa is an expert here and he wrote a sharepost about the Dawn Phenomenon http://www.healthcentral.com/diabetes/c/17/1388/taming-dawn, I think this link would help you out with your fasting glucose levels.
