Hubby was diagnosed years ago with diabetes but I just realized that it has a real hold on me living with it daily.

How low will it go
Well, hubby complained about not feeling well and being clammy...he took his blood sugar and it was 74. He just ate a sensible meal, roast chicken, asparagus, baked potatoes and a few strawberries...he tested is blood pressure and it was good...then he had a banana and a pear but he still felt off, not well...he tried a little homemade granola I made out of buckwheat flakes, honey, raisins, and nuts...perhaps this is low for him and that is why he felt the way he did. I am not used to lows...he had a new diabetic med added so maybe it will take time for him to get it all regulated. HUGS hope you all are having a lovely evening.

As we have discussed before, they are all different....
ReplyDelete74 would be slightly low for Tom
he would be a little off
but easily "fixed" with a little food
sounds like you did the right thing
giving him carbs and other healthy food
new meds complicate everything
good luck
74 could mean different things for different people. Good job with the carbs though :)
ReplyDeleteThanks you two! Yes, he seems to be on a downward spiral with the readings now that they added Actos and upped his night insulin...but with that comes the chance that he might go too low so your experiences are so important to me.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE YOU GUYS!
