I can't remember I think it was high like 6.4 I do remember the Doc did not like it. Maybe it will be better this time, I increased my Lantus to 28 units, Some of these COPD Meds play a part in my numbers, 2 are Steroids. Not that that is an excuse. Humalog will make ya gain weigh, when I was on HumulinR I never gained weigh. I just have to be careful what I eat period.

My A1c was 6.1 last month. Down from 7.5, six months earlier.

Wow dsmart that is great. What's your secret....LOL

Thanks you both. The pump and reading. 'Think Like a Pancreas" absolutely saved my life. I went from 120 units of insulin a day to on average 75 units.

Did I ask you want kind of Insulin you are on? I noticed a weigh increase when I switch from HumulinR to Humalog. Hard to tell cause about that time I also went on Oxygen Therapy and Steroids from smoking, I have quit but the damage is done.

I am going to check on that book dsmart41. Sounds interesting!!!!

Grannie, I smoked for 30 years and quit. Your lungs will heal over time. It is one organ of the body that will heal over time.

I take Novolog- I am now down to 65 Units a day. Yeah

Hi-

I've had a lot of trauma in my life the last few months. My A1c went from 6.8 to 8.9 in three months. Life seems to have settled down and hope this will reflect on my next test. When I'm stressed I eat things I shouldn't as a form of self comfort. Any suggestions on how to avoid doing this.

Ali

Hi Ali, good to see ya. Sorry you have had a bad time dear. Hope you get back to "some kind of" normal....LOL

7.1

Need to work on that Ray...just sayin' LOL

Ray, you are doing well, heading in the right direction.

I have a lot of stress in my life so my A1c is not good. Unless I stay knocked out from some type tranquilizer all day long mine won't be good!!! LOL We know I can't do that so..............................
