I was rushed to emergency surgery and had the reupture removed and L2, L3 and L4 fused. Spent the next 3 days in ICU and was released on the 4th day.

I got the results of my blood work today and my A1C was up from 5.5 to 6.4. I went off LOW CARB during my recovery from knee replacement surgery and that caused me to go a little over. Still have not made it back to LOW CARB. He did add Levemir to my meds. Started that last night dropped 30 points on my morning number.

Update I have been on Victoza since July 2010 with Novolog and Glimipride. I used to do LOW CARB/NO CARB until my knee replacement surgery 11-24-10 but went off during recovery to make things easier. I feel a lot better but have not been able to maintain or loose weight. My morning numbers have been 140 to 190
Yesterday he added Levermir to my meds to help with the morning numbers. I started last night with 10 units AM and PM and will work up until my morning numbers are 120 or less. He… Continue

Victoza day 3, 4, 5, weekend
Posted on July 26, 2010 at 7:31am 1 Comment 0 Likes
.I stopped taking my Lantus shots Friday night and things smoothed out a little. My numbers ran a little above normal and I felt sick but not sick enough to not get anything accomplished over the weekend. I wanted to run several days before I made any adjustments to my meds. My overnights have been respectable.
I faxed my logs in to the ENDO office this morning. Maybe they will call with adjustments.

My Dad was in Nam 69 thru 72. He retired Army in 73. He came back a forever changed man. Glad to see you doing so well on weightloss! I'm on byetta also... just a very slow weightloss for me.( My numbers are being controlled greatly!) I'm also slowly moving my way over to raw/vegan eating lifestyle.

- Thanks Russell but I already own this book and find most of it very useful. I am not trying to lose weight however, I need to gain some. I am a newly diagnosed Type 1 and was thin before I started lowcarb eating. Now I am about 20 pounds underweight. Funnily enough, you and I were diagnosed during the same week! I am lucky in that I can use insulin to allow me to eat a wider range of helathy foods than are allowed on the Bernstein diet, such as fruit and yogurt, rather than artificial sweeteners and cream. I do prescribe to his belief that people with diabetics should maintain normal blood sugar and I am able to do this with a combination of low carb eating, insulin and exercise. My A1C is 5.6 and that's about the best I can manage if I don't want to live on eggs, meat and cheese.
