He's Mortal After All - What a Bummer!
After deciding that he wasn't really diabetic and indulging himself to several days of tons of mashed potatoes, pasta, sugary soft drinks, etc, he finally got consecutive blood glucose readings of 138 and 139. That's high, for him. So it was back to earth again. Now he knows he can't just eat whatever he wants, in whatever amount he wants. But I think he realizes too that with just a few tweaks of his behavior, he can keep this nasty stuff in check, so maybe it wasn't such a bad lesson.

I don't know as much about Type 2 since my hubby is a Type 1, but it sounds as if he is possibly in the beginning stages of Type 2? My husband's blood sugars have been so messed up for so long, that he would be happy with blood sugars in the 130s. He has gone over 500! And no, it's not pretty.
ReplyDeleteYes, he's a fairly late-in-life type 2. I think if he will just use his head and make a few moderate adjustments in his lifestyle, he will be OK.
