RE: Another Question

[Guest guest]

I just tested after eating a Blue Bunny Fudge Lite ice cream bar - no sugar

and 9 carbs. I was 137 before and 182, 1 hour later. Is this a normal

rise for 9 carbs? Is 182 too high and this means I should not eat these

anymore.

Any and all advice appreciated.

Thanks

Sandee,

First off, welcome to the list. Second of all, what brand of

insulin are you using right now? How many units are you taking?

The reason I ask is b/c my mom is strictly just on insulin right

now instead of insulin and another med like Glucophage.

Feel free to e-mail me privately any time.

Hi Carole,

Information I have for bg readings indicate 160-180 one hour after eating.

Some people agree with this, others do not. I would suggest that you try the

ice cream again. There could have been other factors that caused the

increase and not the ice cream, alone. If you try it again and get a high

reading, then you can make the choice of not eating it anymore. Don't give

up on any food just because you get one high reading.

Welcome to my world of 180 :-)....I seem to get that reading a lot.

(even when I eat low carb)...I am seeing my doctor for my H1C test next

week...

I would go see your doctor or nutritionist (do you see a

nutritionist?)...she/he would be able to tell you more ..sus
