Type 2 Bolus Paranoia !!
i was trying to reverse my neuropathy
10:22 took r-lipoic acid 200mg, alpha lipoic acid TR 300mg, evening primrose oil 1.3 gram, biotin, fish oil 2 grams, ginkgo biloba 120mg TR x2, cinnamon, milk thistle, bilberry, eyebright, vit c 250mg,
11:00 99 ReliOn 99 mg/dl
11:30 ate huge veggie soup (broccoli, cauliflower)
12:00 96 ReliOn 96 mg/dl (unexplained blood sugar drops are often caused by broccoli)
12:00 injected Humulin N 17 IU
Type 2 Bolus Paranoia !!
i stopped using metformin yesterday
THIS IS ONLY A TEST !
13:00 109 ReliOn 109 mg/dl
13:30 drank 2 teaspoons of sucrose 30 calories, 8 grams, 70 to 90 mg/dl rise possible or 140 to 180mg/dl without metformin
1 teaspoon (4 grams) of sucrose = 15 calories, 7.5 calories of glucose, may equal 45mg/dl BG ?? got 36mg/dl rise from 1 teaspoon of sucrose (with metformin)
14:00 105 ReliOn 105 mg/dl
14:30 79 ReliOn 79 mg/dl (insulin overcompensation caused by fast sugars)
15:00 66 ReliOn 66 mg/dl
now imagine what would have happened if i had used a bolus to compensate for those 8 grams of sucrose!
I MIGHT BE DEAD NOW !!
my "first phase insulin response" that has been dead for 12 years suddenly just crawled out of it's grave!
