why would my blood sugar sky rocket to 300 immediately following an intense workout?

Question

I very recently started taking januvia, today I had very sensable meals (low carb), 2 hours before my workout my blood sugar was 176, immediately following it was 305

Answer 1

Certainly talk to your endocrinologist, but remember this: two data points do not make a line. Just because it was 176 and then 305 doesn't mean the workout made it worse. Perhaps it was on it's way up when you took the 176, went up to 400 right before your workout, then went back down to 305 immediately after. See what I mean? You'd need a lot more measurements to be sure. Try checking more frequently and certainly talk with your doc.

A M hit the nail on the head. Your muscles send a 'feed me' signal and blood glucose increases in response, but your insulin-resistant cells don't accept the energy the way they should, so the blood glucose level remains high.

I'm sending this along because it helps.

I realize that conventional health care is necessary and appropriate. That having been said, there are also many things WE can do to overcome type II diabetes, and improve life as a Type I diabetic. I've been researching alternative medicine, and the amount of help that's available to diabetics is amazing.

Natural remedies are quite effective, and include:

Cinnamon
Bitter Melon
Gymnema Sylvestre
Nopal cactus
American Ginseng
Fenugreek
Chromium picolinate

Cinnamon regulates glucose, and has a polyphenol compound called MHCP that mimics insulin and activates cell receptor sites. A quarter teaspoon twice daily makes a difference. Fenugreek increases blood flow and inhibits the growth of infectious organisms. Everything on the list has a use in fighting diabetes. Learn how to use these herbs and don't fall victim to diabetes needlessly.You can find out about about them on line, or in a book I read cover to cover--

"One Son's Quest for the Cause and Cure of Diabetes", ISBN 7890766313

The author, a doctor, lost his mother to diabetes and spent the next 20 years finding a way to overcome it. My brother was dying of diabetes, and I was just starting to need insulin when we came across this definitive work which came out in February 2005. We both lead mostly normal lives now. It's a life saver, and the best money you'll ever spend on the subject if you decide to go that way.
You might want to check Abe Books, Alibri's, or Amazon.com for a good used copy cheap. I bought mine new, and I think it was about $35. I don't get any money from anybody for telling you this--just want to help, and the techniques in this book is what made the difference for me and mine. Best of luck.

Just recently found this 8-minute non-profit video http://www.rawfor30days.com/view.html , about diabetes diet. Click on the link, then click 'View Windows Media' to watch it.You'll be glad you saw it.

Answer 4

Forget anything you have ever been told about Diabetes.

And get this - it has nothing to do with insulin, exercise, diet or anything else you've heard in the past. It's all based on latest breakthrough research that Big Pharma is going Stir Crazy to hide from you.

Answer 5

Talk to you endocrynologist or your doctor who is following your diabetes and see if you have an infections. I would certainly have this investigated as soon as possible. Usually when one works out and is drinking water while doing this the blood sugar level will drop.

Answer 7

Your liver probably dumped glucose into your blood so that you'd have the energy you need for your workout.

Answer 8

Both are way too high. Sounds like, workout or not, you are doing something wrong in your diet. If you are type two, you might benefit from reading this:
