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...
When I do eat the biggest meal of the day, I go for my walk, this way when I take my level, 1.5 hour later, it is pretty much in the normal range.
Mind you, I have been trying to get it down from 20, which I suspect I was walking around with my level sky high, for years, so some tells me it might take a month or two, to get it regulated.
The other day it was down to 5.5, first time it was in the normal range.
Now it's pretty much always under 8, so still have some work to do on getting it down, but it's only been 3 weeks now.
On the 1st I need to go for a follow up with my Doctor, and will see if he gives me more medication or he keeps me on 2 pills a day.
Love & Respect,
