Yes, you are diabetic. Your fasting blood sugar should be well under 120. You need to be around 160 to 170lbs or less. Here's what to do... Read this:

For type I and type II diabetics (and those who are overweight and could potentially become diabetic). Copy and bookmark the webpages I‘ve listed below… they are invaluable for those with diabetes and/or weight problems...

I've found a wonderful book that will help you control your diabetes and minimize or even eliminate the complications. Some folks who became diabetic due to poor diet and obesity are effectively cured by following the advice in this book. I'm a type II (inherited), but it helps all types, especially those who became diabetic due to poor eating habits. It's by an author who has really done his homework, Patrick Quillin, Phd. It's called, "The Diabetes Improvement Program". I have tried his suggestions and found them to be very helpful. I have no complications whatsoever and my blood sugar levels are quite stable. Yes, I still have to take Metformin (Glucophage) daily, but it's the minimum dosage (500mg) and I only have to take it twice a day. I have been off Metformin for as much as a week, but this was with vigorous exercise. Many, what I call, non-hereditary type IIs (those that don't have a close relative who had it) have gotten off medication completely, just with diet, exercise, and supplements. So, in some instances, it most certainly can be 'effectively' cured. Read more about it here:
http://www.diabetesimprovement.com/

The book explains what's going on in our system and what to do about it. It's really easy and inexpensive. It's basically diet, supplements and exercise. For example, did you know that cinnamon helps blood sugar absorption? It also controls cholesterol and triglycerides. This is according to the USDA:

For men: Are you suffering from erectile dysfunction? I was. Yes, WAS. Now that everything's under control, I'm able to have nearly normal sex again. I've also put together a little webpage highlighting some of the things I've learned here:

You should see your attending physician and ask him/her to order additional tests to confirm the diabetes diagnosis; you shouldn't take any medication unless it's under the orders and supervision of a doctor. For example, the doctor may order a 2-hour post-pandrial blood sugar test. A sample of your blood before you eat anything in the morning is taken; then a bottle of a special beverage containing 100 grams of glucose is given to you, and another blood sample is taken exactly 2 hours after you take this beverage; this test measures how well your body is metabolizing glucose. In a non-diabetic individual the results of the second sample shouldn't exceed about 160mg/dl; a diabetic will get much higher results. Another blood test, called a glicolized hemoglobin test, may also be done; this one gives the doctor an idea of how high your blood sugar levels have been for the past several months. These tests aren't so expensive; they should go for about $ 40-$50 for the 2-hour test, and some $20-$25 for the glicolized hemoglobin. If you don't have medical insurance and are unemployed, apply for Medicaid; there's a good chance you may qualify. Good luck, and hope my advise has been of help.

I am writing to tell you what an incredible impact these methods had on my life! I have had type 2 diabetes for 27 years. For me, the worst part of this horrible disease is the severe pain I constantly get in my feet. The pain is so bad that I avoid standing and walking as much as possible. I've got to tell you that within the first month, my feet stopped hurting altogether and I can now walk totally pain free.

Believe it or not, I even danced at my niece's wedding last month, something I have not done in a many years. I've been following the book for six months now and my blood sugar is well within normal range. I feel great!

I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

You may be on the edge of type II diabetes. Check yourself several times per day...it's worth the expense. You probably can control it with daily exercise and diet for some time (several more years maybe for good)...however you will need to exercise religiously and modify your eating habits.

Foods to be careful with other than cake, pie and candy/pop are pizza, potatoes and alcohol. Remember everything you eat gets converted to sugar if it can so high calorie foods like pizza will make your blood sugar elevate over long periods (12 to 18 hours) a potato will convert to the same amount of sugar as a large brownie. Foods with sugar in them (pop/candy...brownie) will cause a spike in your blood sugar.

If you get a spike or sustained episode of sugar levels above 300-600+ you will be very sick and drug/insulin dependent after wards...that's what happened to me after I broke my diet/exercise routine. I am a type I diabetic who inadvertently controlled my levels until I was 35 by daily exercise either at a job or riding bicycle long distance. When I spike-crashed I lost 53 lbs in a week and almost died if I hadn't gone to the hospital. It's been two shots a day since.

Good luck and get as much info as you can...webmd is a good start.

You need a Glucose hemoglobin HC1 test. This is a true indicator if you are Diabetic. Having high sugar doesn't mean you are diabetic, because it could level out in minutes or hours. Weight training appears to be the best in controlling blood sugar levels, because the muscle metabolism continues to burn through out the day and night. You will need to get this test and also get an eye exam for retina damage. Glucophage is a great medicine for Type 2 diabetes.

Definitely a good candidate for Adult Onset Type 2 Diabetes. Diet- restrict the amount of carbohydrates you're consuming., exercise, continue to lose weight as you're doing.
I have Type 2 diabetes, which was detected in April of this year. Hated to do it, but had to cut down on potatoes, rice, pasta, bread cookies, donuts and all the things I loved to eat. I am not on any medications, but I test my glucose level twice a day and adjust my diet accordingly. Best of luck and keep watching it. Diabetes is not something to mess with.

Your BTW will not work!
Do you think us diabetics have a choose in seeing our doctors or paying for our meds? We are playing the real game of life (or death) not just some pie in the sky maybe I will and maybe I won't game.
"golocofag" or what ever is not the answer it just might kill you instead then you will be asking or begging for a doctor.
Sorry sweetie, seeing your doctor is the only answer for any of us. if you can't afford one go to a free clinic, always ask for samples at the Dr. office
Good Luck

That fasting suggests mild diabetes. Try low carb diabetic diet before considering medication.
