Very high glucose and this is what they have prescribed in Social Security.

Hello, how are you?I hope much better than me.

I tell you my story.

On June 15 of this year they operated on my right hip due to an avascular necrosis that I suffered.They made a hip forage with stem cell insert.The operation went well but I had to spend 4 months without moving.

On August 7 I got up with blurred vision and a lot of thirst.I went to the pharmacy to take a test and gave me 277 of glucose in fasting blood and hemoglobin at 11.5 (I think the data is high).

On September 2, the hospital doctor of my city prescribed 14 units of slow insulin and take 3 times a day Metformin 850 mg.He also told me to sign up for glucose levels every day but alternating one every day, that is, first day, the second day before lunch and the third day before dinner and so on.

I am quite bad because they continue to leave values ​​close to 200 and before meals close to 300. There are days that at two hours of eating or dinner I get values ​​above 400.

So I'm up to the next hospital's internist visit that I have on December 17.

What do you recommend what can I do?Any idea?

Thank you

Hi Narciso, something similar happened to me three months ago and the treatment was with Lantus and Metformin and when they repeated the analysis for the endocrine consultBetter, I don't know if 3ste will be your case but surely in your next review the endocrine tells you.

If you can go on an emergency because those high values ​​are not good if you are lucky and see an endocrine changes your treatment.

In the emergency department they refer me to the header and specialist and do not want to attend to me because according to them it is a bad control of my diabetes.

The pills feel fatal to me and I think they do nothing right or lower my glucose.

Is it possible to have diabetes 1 with my age?(45 years)

I am greater than you and have diagnosed me d 1 is called Lada and it is possible to say latent diabetes in the adult, it develops when you are older and is of type1.The endocrine asked me in the anti -purks and when he saw the result, he said that nothing was given to me only insulin..
I don't know what community you are from but here in Madrid that is asked in the analytics when they suspect that you are type1.

You need a competent endocrine urgently.

You look like type 1 ...

Because of the debut you tell us, it is typical of type 1 diabetes. And yes, it can develop at any age.I have 37 and they have diagnosed it 5 months ago.Courage and adjust that treatment as soon as possible.

Thank you very much for the answers.You give me many spirits.

I am from Antequera (Málaga) and on Monday I will make an appointment for an endocrine of the capital, it is Dr. García Arnés (in case someone knows him), and I hope he does better than so far with Social Security.

I do not see normal to take care of the top food and continue having values ​​of more than 300. Possibly as you say, of type 1 and need another type of insulin that is able to lower those levels.

What is from Traca I think, is that the hemoglobin of a value of 11.5 (I think it is an average of 310 or so) and the SS continue to insist that I threw me like this several months taking the metformin pills and the 14 units ofInsulina Lantus until the consultation of mid -December, and I have a bad time, but they don't care about them.

The strips tell you that they have only prescribed one per day, and I am using about 3 or 4 since when I am very bad, I take the glucose, especially before the meals, that if I see that it comes out about 300 or more, then, then, thenI don't know what food I'm going to get with those values.

Greetings and I reiterate your attention with me.It is very appreciated.

Hello, I am not an endocrine, but it seems to me that a basal glucose on an fasting of 200 possibly requires more lantus, but that should decide the endocrine, do not forget that the endocrine we pay them among all and must have a confidence with the patient inOtherwise, a specialist change is requested.So the endocrine will be taking time to stabilize the treatment until they increase it.
The glycosilated in 11 is very high, in my opinion, any doctor already becomes nervous (cardiovascular risk), there is also intolerance to metfomine sometimes, but that has to value the specialist, if you have doubts you can also go toThe Social Security Inspection to establish your complaints about any professional and even put a claim in your Social Security Center do not forget to put the name, the time of consultation, the name of the doctor and the start time of the consultation and everythingWhat happened there, otherwise it could be likely that they archive it due to lack of data.
And calm over time will value you, you can also tell the endocrine about the state of your pancreas if you still have insulin, for this there is an analysis, ask for it and if it does not give it to you because.
The most important thing to give you walks of one or two hours light every day.The muscle also has to free glucose.
While we are diabetic adir, that of cholesterol (if high) and the walks for life
Otherwise the statistics inform us that we will be annoyed.
greetings

@Narciso, in the SS there are very good endocrine, and you can request the change you like.
The important thing is that they control you with the proper treatment.
Go as soon as possible, endocrine, but with those values ​​you are needing more lantus. And, surely, also fast in meals

Well, after 15 months of the debut, I got the SS to refer to the endocrine.Because of the hospitable fusion of the Junta de Andalucía, the endocrine of the hospital of my city and I have been assigned the hospital of another city.

The endocrine that has seen me tells me that I have a diabetes of the worst or the worst, it turns out that my body is "drinking" insulin and it is very difficult to adjust the doses before each meal.So I can prick 20 units of fast and be 200 after 2 hours to eat, or on the contrary, it can give me a serious hypoglycemia.It all depends on how they are "working" anti-insulin in my body.

They have taught me to count rations and I have already told them that it does not work with my type of diabetes.The pump will not work either.I already tell you, it all depends on according to "revolts" the anti-insulin.

I have told you that for when a cure, that I volunteer for any type of tests and tells me that it will not see it, at least in this century, so, to enjoy what we are left for.

Greetings and good luck to all

They have to decrease those antibodies, little by little.

Yeah?Well, I am very happy to know.It is something that gives me hope for the future.

All the best.

Hello, because my last hemoglobin out of 8 and we keep trying to lower it, but come on, that I do not take my dream.Little by little.

In the SS I have attended a course to learn to count HC and in the theory it looks easy but in practice it is difficult to succeed with the appropriate dose.Or you spend or fall short.

To the doctor who treats me I have requested a continuous meter of freestyle glucose, but come on, nothing at all.Either we pay it or there is nothing to scratch.In the end I will end up buying it because I see it very difficult to control blood glucose leaving so much time between control and control.This disease is very cabr (/na and you are at 108 that in a pee you put at 150 or 180 and by the time you have to control you, you are already at levels above 200, therefore, it is necessary to control at leastEvery hour or every hour the glucose of our blood if we want to start seriously our diabetes.

Greetings and receive a cordial hug.
