Guest guest Posted July 28, 2002 Report Share Posted July 28, 2002 Jacqui went through this too, Jacquie.... We've never spanked, and RARELY act like we are mad at her...but we've had these incidents after she's done something of " Dont' spank me!!!! " and " Don't be mad at me!! " My guess is he's hearing this stuff from other kids. Maybe, quite possibly at 's house. Or maybe someone has said something at school? Or maybe something from TV? Jacqui got the spanking stuff from the neighbors, the neighbors kids got spanked, and quite obviously Jacqui knew it. Just my guess.

I tried to ask him if that had happened, in a roundabout way, but he wasn't following what I was asking him to tell me. I don't think he understood what I wanted to know, or else he just didn't want to talk about it. Jacquie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 24, 2003 Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 Hi- Sounds like hypoglycemia for sure. What time/type of the last dose of insulin are you taking? You may want to lower it and also have a bedtime snack- a handful of nuts may help you. That used to happen to me a number of times until I started having a bedtime snack. Re: question Eunice I have question to ask since I am kinda new. This week it seems like at night, or I use say around 2:30a. m. I have awaken with just soak in sweat my head to my toes. and I have been dizzy. this has happen the last three night. This morning when it happen, I did do a blood sugar count and it was 36. What do I need to do and why is this started to happen. I have not changed the time of my insulin and I am eating at the same time. Also in the morning around 11 I am getting very shaky and dizzy. I am keeping a log . The morning part has been going on for the last three weeks and it is not every day. I have tested and my number is usually around 40 to 55. so what am I doing wrong. any help would be appreciated thanks mary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 24, 2003 Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 Do you have a snack before bed? If so, what? Re: question Eunice I have question to ask since I am kinda new.

What >do I need to do and why is this started to happen. , What sort of insulin regimen are you on? What type of insulin are you taking with meals, and in particular, what are you using as long-acting, background insulin? I suspect that there might be NPH insulin involved, which has been used for a long time as a background insulin but is historically notorious for the hypos it causes due to its considerable peak (it's actually *not* a long-acting insulin; it's in the " intermediate-acting " category, and has a far more pronounced peak than Lantus or Ultralente, which are essentially " flat " ). I used NPH for the first year after my diagnosis, and for me, it was next to impossible to really maintain any sort of control. Every day, at 12:30 p.m., I would " crash, " since this is when my morning dose of NPH would be at its peak. Things got a bit better for me when I switched from Regular ® to Humalog for meal coverage, since the Humalog has a shorter activity time than Regular (I was having problems with the overlapping action time of the R I took to cover my breakfast and the NPH). With the dinnertime/bedtime dose of NPH (depending upon when you take your insulin in the evenings), I found it necessary to have a bedtime snack to prevent middle-of-the-night lows, which is what you seem to be experiencing, given the timing. These are the sort of numbers that I see quite often when I'm crashing; I know that given my history with hypoglycemia, I'm the *last* person who should or could offer any real practical advice in terms of preventing the lows, but I DO suspect that it ultimately has everything to do with (a) the timing of your evening insulin dose(s) and ( the type of insulin you are using. If you ARE using NPH, what time are you taking it in the evening? A bedtime snack *might* ultimately be necessary, if your doctor doesn't feel that you should be using a different type of insulin for background coverage. Also, if you're on a 70/30 mix, that too is 70 percent NPH, so there exists the potential for the same circumstances; it's still going to peak, and you're going to need to account for that peak, and do something to " feed " it in order to lessen its impact. Please write back and let me know if this is what you've been using. And more importantly -- call your doctor. Take it from one who knows all too well: lows are NOT pleasant, and lows in that range are potentially dangerous (having experienced more of my share). I think it was Sandy who had responded to my last post regarding the most recent severe low I experienced by saying how crucial it is to always have glucose tablets on hand. Although I didn't have a chance to reply to her, one thing I do want to say is that no matter what, glucose tablets are the ONE thing that I will NEVER allow myself to run out of. I don't believe that using food, candy, and the like has ever been or will ever be an effective manner of treating a hypo. Glucose tablets (or glucose gel) should be your first and your primary form of " retaliation " against the lows. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 If a person is on insulin could they eat what ever they wanted and adjust the amount of insulin? I am not suggesting this as something to do I am just asking the question. Thanks, Helen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 7, 2003 Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 I think it depends on which insulin; i dont think a person could on 70/30, what i used to be on, without having server lows, which i did anyway; but when i was switched to lantus and humalog the dr said , in response to my question, that is was possible to shot alot of insulin and eat a whole cake, but then you would end up 500 lbs lol > If a person is on insulin could they eat what ever they wanted and adjust the amount of insulin?

Guest guest Posted November 10, 2003 Report Share Posted November 10, 2003 I know people who do. One of my lodge brothers who died recently--cancer, nothing do do with diabetes--ate sweets and starches like it was going out of style; he'd just up his meds or insulin to make up for it. RE: Question I would never, for example, eat a pasta meal like the meals I ate pre-diagnosis and simply inject a half dozen extra units of insulin to cover the carbs in that meal.
