tglo replied to MarathonMan's discussion 'Comparing A1C to daily BG readings'"Yes I am serious, I find it quite fascinating how Diabetes affect so many people in so many different way's, what methods improve one seems to have no effect on another. Thanks for the info on the eAG free wheel. As I perused it, because the…"
tglo replied to MarathonMan's discussion 'Comparing A1C to daily BG readings'"I had been pronounced a diabetic in 1989 (see my post regarding the liver and the release of glucose, posted in January 2013). I believed for a long time that is until I connected with this site, that I was the only obsessed diabetic nut determine…"
Stemwinder replied to tglo's discussion 'The Dumping of glucagon and or Glucose by the Liver'"Kidney problems make basal insulin an even more attractive option. Unless I'm way off base here I will guess insulin has no effects on kidneys. I'm not sure they can say that about most oral medications if any.
Everyone fears the injection…"
acidrock23 replied to tglo's discussion 'The Dumping of glucagon and or Glucose by the Liver'"I "only" have T1 but it sort of disturbs me that your doctors went along with "you 'only' need [pills]" while your BG leads to a condition where you've suffered complications. It seems as if they…"
Brian (bsc) replied to tglo's discussion 'The Dumping of glucagon and or Glucose by the Liver'"I also used to fear needles, but I overcame it. As you become exposed to injection it becomes routine and the fear dissappears very quickly. The desire to be healthy overcame any fears I had. And besides, I had already had to do injections with…"
tglo replied to tglo's discussion 'The Dumping of glucagon and or Glucose by the Liver'"My brother also is diabetic and he chose insulin and we match numbers pretty frequently and I find that I am beating him like a drum. His fasting MGDL is almost constantly 10-12 points higher, and he checks as often as I do and we find that his Mgdl…"
tglo replied to tglo's discussion 'The Dumping of glucagon and or Glucose by the Liver'"You are correct in your statement regarding metformin as it is indeed the first line defense, however due to my reluctance in accepting this disorder I have apparently caused damage to my kidneys and they will not prescribe Metformin. As a matter of…"
tglo replied to tglo's discussion 'The Dumping of glucagon and or Glucose by the Liver'"were you leary or jumpy regarding insulin intake daily. Most people including myself would do anything to stay away from needles, though I acknowledge as you pointed out that not only sulfonylureas but all oral diabetic drugs will cease to be…"
Stemwinder replied to tglo's discussion 'The Dumping of glucagon and or Glucose by the Liver'"I don't see mention of metformin in your post. Metformin works by helping to control how your liver releases glucose and it also helps with insulin resistance. I know it's another drug but it's worth condidering. I believe it is the…"
Brian (bsc) replied to tglo's discussion 'The Dumping of glucagon and or Glucose by the Liver'"I am a T2 as well and I was never able to control my fasting blood sugars. I gave it every effort. I followed Bernstein's "Diabetes Solution" diet and kept very strict and I rotated through a wide combination of drugs. In the end I…"

A Short Story:I was 48, young and virile a young man extremely atheletic and very active in that I exercised everyday (cardio as well as free weights). In 1992 I was diagnosed as a borderline diabetic, but so what that meant nothing to me after all I was the perfect specimen of health 6 feet tall 170 lbs and great body definition, why should I be concern.... RIGHT.Well, in 2003 I began to start feeling lethargic and decided to pay a visit to my doctor the blood work revealed that day my MGDL…See More
