On Saturday I ate a good breakfast. My bg was around 115 before lunch. I took lettuce put turkey peperoni, black olives, peperjack cheese and a pickle slice and rolled it up and that was my lunch. I made 2 of them. They were really good. About 20 min later my sugar dropped suddenly. I got sick in the stomach, shakey, dizzy and I knew my # was low. I did not test it right away but I ate a chocolate bar then a bun because I felt so bad I wanted to get my sugar up quick. I tested it about 15 later and it was 84 so I know I must have went pretty low.
What I was considering was to stop the meds(with my dr’s okay) and try doing it with diet alone. It seems lately with the meds I have to eat more carbs or I go hypo. I also will eat something I shouldn’t and think it’s okay the Meds will take my BG back down.
Please don’t respond with my toes will fall off if I go off the meds. I am still taking them. I just want some opinions. I know there are some T2’s that do it without meds. It feels like I will use the meds so I can eat want I want. I don’t want to do that but I am really struggling with the food thing. I was really scared when my BG was up in the 400’s and I don’t want to return to that. I think I need a big push again to stop the binge eating. The high #’s were a start but now I feel my old habits want to come back because I have meds and my dr would increase it if my BG goes higher.
