Hmnn probably you 1st time detected? and thus the Doc trying 1st on medicine to test whether working on you kua?

yup 1st time detect haiz

If you type 1 diabetes, doctor should start you on the insulin right? since type1 diabetes is lack of insulin


btw I'm meeting the doctor today, let me see if I can ask is there any sponsorship program or clinical trial that can include outside patient.

I believe losing weight is the best and only way to control your diabetes.

How old are you?

I read your first posting, you wrote type 1 hehe.

I got type 2 when I was 23 back in 2003 now already 10 years and Alhamdulillah improving. I also have ups and down. I was hospital in 2007 for having neglected to take any medication and was diagnose with bacteria infection (cellulitis) which stiffen the joints.

in 2012, I made up my mind to start control the disease.

My doctor you may want to refer yourself to hukm. They supply levemir. Get a gp to refer u to hukm

HUKM too far from me-lah.. Puchong to Cheras...no way man ..Atleast University Hospital still near. Anyway, HUKM similar to University is not Govt but semi. So the charges are not cheap. University Hospital per visit - GP - RM5 & Specialist = RM15 and drugs - 1 mth supply -RM20 and if special drugs - RM50/mth....Well, Total still cheaper than private but not free for sure

Yeah. Since University Hospital is not funded by KKM.

By the way my visit with the doctor just now conclude with the reduction of my victoza to 1.2 from 1.8 unit dos and 1 g of glucophage from previously 1.5 g. he said that my body right now is in non diabetic since my hba1c is on normal area. 5.0. Need to keep exercising and watch my diet.

Damn jealous ..Anyway congratz for such a good result... I am dreaming of getting this

man man la. need to exercise regularly and watch diet. dont eat fried wantan too much.

Pterocarpus marsupium, the Indian Kino tree, is apparently the only herb shown
to be capable of regenerating the islet cells in the pancreas.

Just came back from govt clinic. After looking at my random bs, agreed that I'm more on type 1 now furthermore since 18 yrs old. She maintained my night insulatard 8 ut and actrapid every meal also at 8 ut each. She stopped me on glicazide but maintaining my 1500mg metformin

My hba1c result last wk was 9.7% Hope to reduce to 6.5 in nxt 2-3mth

Oh btw, reason she maintained the metformin is for the purpose of reducing cancer risk of diebetic as according to her, new studies show that metformin can reduce the risk of cancer...hmnnnn

wow a government doctor who actually reads medical journal.

yeah recently studies shown that metformin reduce the risk of cancer and metformin actually helps in suppressing your appetite

Ok 1st day report card after the doc prescribed me both intermediate & short acting insulin yesterday.

Well, yesterday was Abit yo yo. B4 came back home, I hv taken my last glicazide 160mg just b4 my late breakfast ~9:50am. After breakfast and reached home, I started jabbing 4 ut of actrapid just to stabilized my bs level. During lunch, I took 6 ut. ( my actual prescribed ut is 8 ut) the bad thing was by 4.30 pm I started to sweat even though inside aircon environment and the time I reached home ~ 6pm, I checked my bs and the reading was 4.2. To avoid hunger, I actually took the leftover popcorn b4 I jabbed only 6 ut + 750mg metformin. My dinner was heavy with normal rice + pear & mango. And 9pm my reading was 11.2 damnit lucky this morning my reading was 5.2.

Now strictly following doc's prescription. Hopefully getting better although my breakfast just now now really healthy. 3 slices of White bread!

substitute white bread with Gardenia Breakthru. Did wonder to my bloodsugar when I was on Carbohydrate.

Surprisingly ok bcos my ytay 2hr after that 3 slices of white bread=5.1 anyway my normal bread massimo wheat germ haha. Last wk can't find massimo so got gardenia white only

Ytay lunch was bad. Full of carbo ninja joe porky rice set. So 2 hr after lunch result -8.6 and dinner also carbo rich hokien mee but surprisingly result was good at 5.7. With the last basal insulin jab during mid nite, my fsb moment ago stabilized at 5.6

Ok just taken a slice of bread for my 15km bike ride after this post

good postprandial blood glucose.

I just had laksa and ais kacang. blood sugar at 7.5 after 1 hr.

My Endocrinologist said the best time to check blood glucose is after 30 minutes to 1 hour of taking simple carbohydrate like rice, bread, sweet drinks.

Phew. My worse experience of hypo this afternoon. After my last posting, took 1 slice of bread and went for 16km bicycle ride and thereafter continue washing my car b4 jabbing 8 ut of actrapid and 2 slices of breads.

Went to the curve ~11 am and by 12pm, I started sweating inside cool aircon environment and by 12.15pm, hand shaking and feel hunger. Lucky found the fruitl stall nearby and just ate a pc of papaya...only feeling Abit better 15min later b4 looking for my lunch. Yet to check my bs level till now hehe.

In future, if I went for bike ride, I should hv reduced 2 ut of insulin. Scary

Or bring some snack with you. One bottle of 250ml milo can help with hypoglycemia.
