I am not sure whether or not I have pre diabetes or diabetes already. I cannot afford to see a doctor.
I am under the impression that if I stay between
70-90, 100 MAX fasting
& 80-100 post
That I can solve/reverse this issue.
I've been showing signs of having hypoglycemia for the past 2-3 months after I got the DEPO shot.
From shakiness & anxiety
To night terrors & sweating in my sleep. I brushed it off because I didn't know any better.
It wasn't until Friday the 25th that I had my first hypo 'attack' & found out my sugar drops. It was at 47. I got a meter & for the next week I treated the lows by eating 5-6 small meals (I'm used to 1-2 x's a day). On Friday the 2nd i actually over ate. I had a burger, small fries & oj & woke up in a panic at around 3 am I thought my sugar dropped despite eating what I did. Instead it spiked to 198. I've never been that high. Always between 80-90 100max
After that my sugar will not go down. I've been fighting with the high sugar for 3 days now & FINALLY managed to ok it last night & this morning. Last night after 2-3 hour walk, my sugar was at 85 I ate high protein & no carb. I did about an hour of bedtime yoga & 2 hours later I was at 108. I did another 15-20 minutes of yoga & went to bed & this morning I'm at 100. I slept well, no huge spikes. I still don't want to reach 100 because that still makes me feel really sick. My goal is to stay between 70-90 again.
I haven't been battling any lows since the 12/2/16 after it spiked to 198.
I've stayed in the 104's-171's-my highest since 198.
I am trying to adapt the Keto diet because I think it will help.
I have a lot of things working against my sugar levels
Anxiety disorder
Depression
Medications
Chronic stress
Insomnia etc.
I've had all these things since I was a child so nothing new.
I just need help understanding what to do about this whole mess.
