Been having some minor issues in the morning.. Going to bed with a low 5 (90) waking up with a high 5 so its not bad..
Issue is, I am up at 6am and do just over an hour of driving.. Due to this i tend not to eat or anything first thing in the morning due to the side effects of my Met and my IBS.
So what happens is by the time i get to work and eat (8am) i am up in the low 7’s and tend to starve myself at breakfast and lunch to bring my sugar back down to be back on track for dinner.
Now i was talking to my doctor and he is concerned with my lack of eatting and insists i eat a hardy breakfast before i start my day. Due to many of my other issues, which would kill me on my blood sugar!
Now i was talking to the Diabetes specialist at my local drug store and she said she has a few customers who have the same issues and has said that their doctors have put them on a fast acting insulin ( Humalog® (insulin lispro) ) which they take then eat there hardy breakfast and then take the met when they get to where they are going for maintaince?
Can this be done, does anyone do it? Can you mix between the oral meds and insulin like that just for one meal with out complications? At least till I get my weight down and more healthy?
