Diabetes Type 2 Support Group

Type 2 Diabetes is a condition in which the body either does not produce enough insulin or does not make efficient use of it. Insulin is a hormone needed to convert food into glucose, a sugar that the body uses for energy. Without enough insulin, glucose can accumulate in the blood, and can cause serious health problems such as heart disease and strokes and organ damage...

lady problems and suger levels

I tried looking it up but all I found is that pre-menstration suger can be high. I'm not having that problem.

I'm usually between 91 and 111 when I wake up. I started my special time... and I woke up at 136 and have been running high.

I'm not really sure what to do about it but the other thing that I do notice today is that my legs feel a little tingly or woobily.

I don't know how to even begin to fix this.

It's just that my suger is high.

I mean I don't usually wake up higher then 111 anymore - but I'm waking up in my 130's on my period. I tried looking up why it would be and how to fix it but everything only says it should be higher right before my period ( I didn't have that problem) and then it says it should go back to normal once my period starts. And I'm high.

I don't understand y it is.

so many things can mess with your blood glucose, especially hormones, all part of life, do talk with your doctor if concerned, something you can't "fix"

Everyone is different. I'd say throw in a few extra minutes exercising pre period and during if it's running a bit higher than normal during these times.. That's the best and easiest way to drop it a bit.. Keep an eye on those numbers.. Make sure you aren't sneaking in sweets like so many of us want to do during these times too.. I know everyone says a little exercise goes a long ways, but it IS true. I had a heart attack and had to cardiac rehab and I got to see first hand just how little exercise it takes to lower not only blood sugar but blood pressure too.. And it's something that helps those numbers the whole day. that's what I would try first.. But if it's scaring you or bothering you too much call your doctor.
