does not eating for 16 hours raise or lower blood sugar?
borderline diabetic. doc gave me an accucheck meter to monitor and control sugar through diet and life style changes.
i will see the doc again this friday and discuss my results with him.
doc has been using blood tests from the lab and an accu check in his office to monitor me several times a year, always close, but never into the diabetic range.
my level all day stays below 140.
fasting is out of control. first thing in the morning im averaging 120.
"Dawn Phenomenon" was suggested in another question, which i wil discus with the doc.
as an experiment, i did not eat anything for 16 hours. reading was 128.
can not eating push it up that high?
should i try several small meals through the day?
or is my something wrong? have i become a diabetic over night and i cant control this anymore? should i call the doc on monday?
thanks everyone, this is new to me and im just not sure when it becomes critical and i should worry.
Yes, not eating can raise your blood sugar and it can be dangerous to some people.
Your eating habits should be consistent. Eat breakfast,a mid morning snack,lunch,afternoon snack, supper and an evening snack.This could be too much for you to do but diabetes is a trial and error disease but not too much error.Monitor your blood whenever your not sure.It's better to be safe than sorry.Best of health to you!!! Take Care!
