i need help please. I have noticed that no matter what goes in my mouth
i tend to crash about 30 minutes later. I am not eating high carb or
sugar. can anyone suggest what I can eat to stop this. I am tired of
feeling horrible just because I am eating. I feel like every time I eat I need to go sleep for a few hours. I don't know what I am doing wrong.

I often think I have many problems with me as in Aids, Diabetes, other crazy things I don't know why I think of this stuff I am only 17 years old. I think it was due to my poor lifestyle at ages of 14-16. I have kinda grew out of this.

But I am going to the doctor for a blood test...which blood test should I ask for?

I want to make sure my heart is fine, I dont have diabetes, I dont have aids, I dont have any infections, my blood circulation is fine. What blood test has the most things possible that they can check for which can basically prove to me that I am a normal person and don't have anything wrong with me.

Thank you very much

for cookies, candy bars, non-diet sodas, orange juice...anything with sugar. I know that's ok for a temporary fix, but it's usually his only nutrition for the day. Since my birthday, Oct 18, Mom has seen dad eat ONLY 1 poptart and several mello yello's. NEVER eats regularly, NEVER exercises, sleeps (or is in bed) most of the day, drinks HEAVILY every day (normally 1.75 liter of vodka/whiskey every 2-4 days!!). Mom noticed recently how purple his left leg was, also blotchy purple on both arms. His blood sugar episodes leave him immobilized, and eventually soiling and/or wetting himself. There are poop and pee stains throughout the house, especially in and around his recliner, in and around his side of the bed, and in his bathroom. He's temporarily lost the use of his legs--for minutes or hours at a time--and once, at least, couldn't see. I need GOOD sources of info for him. He needs it all written down for him what he can and can't do. He's VERY STUBBORN, he thinks no one notices.

I can't seem to get an answer about this test. The doc who ordered it will be out of town for a week.
The glucose was measured for a 3 hr GTT test. The fasting level was 84. At 1 hr it was 120. Then at 2 hrs it jumped to 188 and at 2 1/2 hrs it was 178 (both indicated as high on the test) the levels then went back down.
Is this indicative of pre-diabetes?

I am looking for a diabetic bracelet. I have seen them before. They are made out of rubber I think. They use to be very popular. People have them for breast cancer and other health problems. Some say "hope" and other words like that. Does anyone know where I can get one? Or what web site I can look at? Please help me.

My fasting blood glucose in the AM is running high, around 160. Two hours after breakfast it's down to 140. Just before lunch, 115. I told my MD and diabetes nurse about it and they looked at me like I was crazy. I take Metformin and Glipizide, no insulin.
