So good to hear from you Shelley...I really hope this thread survives...I mentioned to the gals at weight loss that I did join another group for extra support but I do love it here so it makes me happy to hear from you! I am struggling with LOW sugars right now...they keep dropping to 42 and 43! Yesterday it happened so fast! Saffire and I were in a department store when I felt that feeling come over me...I went to check out immediately..grabbing some chocolate on the way. I took 2 glucose pills at the cash and headed out. I could barely walk let alone carry Saffire....all I wanted to do was get her in her car seat and buckled so that she was safe...I made it then talked to hubby on cell untill I was able to drive again....I still felt weak from it last night!
It is a bummer...if I cut back on my meds it goes too high...take the right dose it goes to low....this disease sure is tricky!!

That is soooo scary Dorrie. I am glad you are ok

My sugar does not drop like that. What does the doc say about yours going so low. You also take diabetes meds too right? Which one?

I take Metformin and Glyberide...and the doctor says that I need to eat more often...snack!!! Trying to lose weight is hard enough!! I need to play around with different combinations ie p. butter and crackers...cheeses and crackers etc and figure out what holds me over the longest and is not going to make me gain weight....I think I will dig out my old curves book...it lists the GI index for foods!
I never had the low sugar probs when I was first dx'ed...not even extremely high...that was 2 years ago and my things have changed!!
