Re: daily blood sugar #s question

[Guest guest]

Judith,

So many things can effect your glucose level besides

just what you eat. Stress can effect it, your menstral

cycle can effect it, if your coming down with a bug it

can effect it. As far as what your glucose reading

goal should be, it can vary from person to person. Ask

your Dr what he wants your goal to be and use that as

your guide. The goal my Dr set for me is higher then

what is usually found in info you read. But is what he

feels is realistic for me.

Hang in there. i know how hard the food thing is. I've

had eating disorders also since I was about 8 yrs old

and I've been a diabetic for over 20 years. You will

hear this alot, but just try to take it a day at a

time. Sometimes you have to take it a minute at a

time.

-hugs,

Sunny
