I have high blood sugar how do I go about lowering it I feel tired all the time?

Answer 1

You should see an endocrinologist and be evaluated for diabetes.
Then you need to educate yourself and take medications as prescribed.

Good Luck.
BTW- we all need carbs and yes, veggies have carbs.

Answer 2

Others have given some really good information, so I'm just going to talk about all fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables are healthy, but you need to pay attention to the fact that even though they don't contain "sugar," they still have carbohydrates. All fruits have carbs and raise blood sugar. Some raise it more slowly than others (apples have more fiber than orange juice). Starchy vegetables like peas, corn, and potatoes also contain carbohydrates to raise blood sugar. You don't want to cut out ALL carbs, but he needs to pay attention to how many he's eating. If you haven't already, make an appointment with a dietitian or diabetes specialist to go over all of this information. They can also help him create a meal plan to fit his lifestyle. It would probably be a good idea to go together so that you can both learn about how to take care of his health.

Answer 3

I would suggest, if you can, going on the insulin pump. My blood sugars were all over the place before I got my pump, it was the best decision I ever made. So try the pump, if you have any hesitations about getting one, talk to your doctor.

If you already have a pump...raise your basals, but have your doctor help you if you don't know how. Only raise if you've been high at the same times continuously for more than three days.

If you're type 2, then I'm lost.

Answer 4

You should talk to your Doctor. If you are on Insulin there are ways to increase your dosage to bring the high blood sugar down. But this information should only be given by a Doctor,
or Diabetic Facility.
