Guest guest Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Hello Harry, I knew I could count on you to lend a hand. Between you, Nurse Pat and myself I think we can actually " encourage " Mr Markie to get it back together. Pat, drag out some of your old heavy work shoes.

Yep, Cy is right, and I will be glad to help him in the field goal department. You most likely need to be on long-acting insulin like Lantus and bolus insulin like Humalog, but if you are determined to lower your glucose levels on diet and exercise alone, then you need to start eating all the eggs you can handle. I hope you like fried eggs, scrambled eggs and boiled eggs. Each egg contains plenty of nutrition, and you can probably survive a very long time on just eating boiled eggs alone. The egg contains hardly any carbs to talk about maybe one carb per egg. No bread at all on this diet. To spice up things have a cucumber or some pickles. Maybe you would prefer munching on some raw lettuce or raw cabbage. If you get desperate for something more filling, then maybe a hunk of cheese will do. After all cheese is low in carb content as well. Then if your glucose level is 250 or there abouts, take a thirty minute walk. This will lower your glucose level by 50 or sisty points, but the only way you can tell is by using your best friend to help you, the glucose monitor. ly, I am lazy and prefer injecting insulin with a syringe. The diet and exercise will not work in the short run, but it will help a lot. The only way to know for sure whether or not you are now an insulin dependent diabetic is to have a C-peptide test. If your pancreas has given up the job of producing insulin, then this test will tell the story. If you have medicare and or insurance, the insulin should be covered with a co-pay of a minimal amount. Good luck on your quest and now you know what to do. Glad to see you back in the fold, Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
