Hey Sandy

Well I was on Amaryl and it was doing okay, but then when I had to start

taking the Predisone my blood sugars when nuts so she swith me to Glucovance

1.25/250. It brought the sugar level down under 300, but my new PCP has

increased the dosage to 1.50/500. That has brought it down more, but seems

when ever I eat anything no matter how small the sugars go back up..then come

back down after about 4 hours. Oh, I could eat nothing but lettus or

something like that and my sugars would be way down there, but who can live

on rabbit food. I don't eat much either way, but the weight I gained is

still there and won't come off. I was able to loose about 25 pounds, but I'm

still 50 pounds over weight. I think the Glucovance has worked good so far,

not sure if my dosage will need to be increased again. I'm only on 15 mg of

Pred right now. I just don't want to have to start giving myself shots. Not

sure if I could handle that one. Would get out and walk as I stated before,

but the hip gives me to much pain. I try and keep as mobile as I can, but

it's begining to become very difficult for me to walk, sit or stand for long

periods of time. It's even difficult for me to vaccum my living room with

feeling like I've been running three miles.. I really think I need some

counciling regarding what I should eat. I try and stay as far away from

sugars and carbs..
