This one is for the ladies

I was wondering if menopause could somehow affect blood glucose. See post : http://www.diabetesforum.com/diabetes-forum-lounge/2128-what-your-fasting-blood-sugar-morning-631.html#post51421

Anyone having those wonderful delightful hot flashes and tested? :mad2:

I don't know if it's menopause or high blood sugar that gave me the dragon mood... but now that my sugars are doing great I'll be able to tell for sure :lol:

Well thank you very much ladies for your feedback!

Don't you hate it when you go from normal heat to volcano heat in 2 minutes flat?

I wonder if test strips work below freezing point?

I don't have another explanation for my high FBS this morning. I feel better blaming it on menopause anyway

I was waiting for a hot flash... and it came!!!! No I'm not crazy. I was simply very curious about how BG behaved during or right after a hot flash. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to test during. Hard to test when you go from normal heat to volcano heat in 60 seconds flat. :target:

Tested 9.8 (176) right after the hot flash was over. Interesting! Before that, maybe an hour before, I was 5.7 (102). I didn't eat or drink anything before that (stupid) hot flash. I went down to 6 (108) one hour later.

I must catch a night time hot flash now...

Wish me luck!
