Wow, great readings repeated.

Regarding PPBS being low, it was the case for me as always, Dr advised me to have some form of natural sugar(like banana, etc with my BF, to bring the BS level to normal, because I was completely avoiding any form of sugar for BF or coffee/tea.

Anyway, good work, consistency pays.

I had taken 3 Appams of Rice dough & coffee with milk & sugar. More over I am not taking any Diabetic medication. So my PPBS being low is not due to shortage of starch/sugar intake. I see it as a healthy performance of my Pancreas. In the case of healthy individuals such phenomena will be left unnoticed as they do not undergo these tests usually.

Thank you @ nairrajis.

Yes.It is a reversal of diabetes , which can be called a miracle. Shows pancreas started behaving like a good boy .

This is not any miracle @saswathy. I did the right thing in the right way & body responded appropriately.

Thank you for acknowledging it.

in reply toShooterGeorge

Dear sir , even if right thing is done in a right way . sometimes the results are not so good and hence if I say it is a miracle , it is not an exaggeration.

Having a bit of sugar is good for the system .

Sugar is good but not due to Diabetes, @saswathy.

in reply toShooterGeorge

But , I think , even a diabetic has to have certain amount of sugar , for having the energy to run the machine .Too much is a disease but not the optimum level depending upon the need .I just can't digest the idea of total ban on sugar .

ShooterGeorge sir.......I am not medical professional.....

I have seen your earlier reports and this report.At this moment you are not diabetic for sure....

But....to me you high blood sugar was due to high insulin resistance. Probably reason for that is your love for fruits.(am I guessing right?).

What is your IR right now??

Have you ever checked you liver for fatty liver???

Many of my friends who consume more fruits have this problem.

Whatever....but your results are fantastic....May God give you long and healthy life...

ShooterGeorge profile image
ShooterGeorge in reply tocure

@ cure,

Me too am not medical man. Thank you for the recognition. High Blood Sugar - do you mean FBS 90? Sorry that you are not guessing right. I like fruits much but not taking too much.

I have not tested/calculated my IR yet. With next Blood test I may.

I get LFT done annually. Last month all parameters were in range. Fatty liver will be shown by LFT, no?

Thank you for the prayers.

REGARDING FBS 90 I HAVE SOME EXPLANATION, PROBABLY OUT OF MY LACK OF KNOWLEDGE.

You have seen that my morning PPBS is 73. 70 is supposed to be the lower limit of BS. In other words 70 is the hypo-threshold.

BS was 73 at 2hrs from end of meal. Same thing would have happened after previous day's supper also. Supper was over before 9pm. So by 11pm ( 2300 hrs) BS would have reached somewhere between 80-70. Probably in an hour or two (or 3) it would have fallen below 70. This, I feel, would have triggered a Liver dump to raise BS to a safe level, say 130 or 140.

Normal utilisation of BS from that time to 730am would have brought it only to 90.

HENCE I DO NOT SEE ANY ABNORMALITY IN FBS BEING 90 AND PPBS GOING TO 73.

Your learned response/comment earnestly solicited - ALL MEMBERS.

cureAdministrator in reply toShooterGeorge

Nah....I am not talking about ur current FBS.....current sugar level is well within the limits....

I am talking about ur earlier blood sugar reports.(when you were diabetic)

It was your IR which was causing your blood sugar to go high.

And I think that your fatty liver is cause of high IR.

Liver parameter like SGPT/SGOT may show normal level....till fatty liver goes worst.

I really don't know if diabetes is cause of fatty liver or fatty liver is cause of diabetes.

In normal non diabetic....liver always try to maintain good sugar balance....irrespective of you eat large amount of sweets or you are totally fasting.

But when there is some imbalance like PP goes below fbs.....you should be bit more careful.

Besides this.....have you done your Hba1c?

what are the reports??

cause when i did my sugar currently...my fbs was 113 and pp 125.

but Hba1c was 6.4

I check my sugar regularly at home meter....I never spike above 130 any time....stillHba1c 6.4??? that means I must be spiking late at night or very early in the morning...liver dump???

My liver parameter show normal range.....but MIR shows fatty liver.

ShooterGeorge profile image
ShooterGeorge in reply tocure

Okay @ cure, now I know that when I was diabetic I was not knowing even the significance of HbA1c - leave alone IR, Serum Insulin, fatty liver etc...

A1c is near 6.

I test Lipid profile quarterly and LFT annually. All parameters are normal. Is MIR that tell about fatty liver? If yes, what is MIR? If no, then how to know about fatty liver?

Of course, this is a hypo following a blood sugar spike. It would be good to check the blood glucose at around 30m post-prandial when you do these loaded tests. Blood glucose tends to peak at 30m - 1hr.

@ kapilv,

It was not a planned loaded test. During OGTT I chech at 30, 45, 60, 90, 120 etc.

Thanks

No doubt,numbers are non-diabetic!

PPBS is lesser than lower limit of normal range.

Please point out reason behind PPBS lesser than FBS!

ShooterGeorge profile image
ShooterGeorge in reply toalwaysoptimistic

@ always...,

Thank you for the recognition.

PPBS 73 is not below lower limit of normal range, to the best of my limited knowledge.

Regarding reason behind PPBS lesser than FBS, will you kindly see my response to @ cure just above this.

There I have requested experts to review my viewpoint. You are also welcome.

We are in the same boat @ Concernrd. Caffeine is supposed to increase blood glucose, I suppose. That day's BF was from a hotel near the lab. It might have had more starch & sugar. Hence my Pancreas would have released sufficient Insulin to handle an overshoot due to excess intake. That might have in turn resulted in an undershoot of BS. So I don't think that this needn't cause any concern. Anyway thanks for the concern & advice.

Such BF I take only when I go for Blood test once in a month or two.So no room for worry on that count as well.

ShooterGeorge profile image
ShooterGeorge

Thank you @ ragivrao. PPBS is not less than minimum; only bordering it. There is no concern of hypo as I am not taking any diabetic medication. That BF is more than sufficient for a 60+ man with 60kg weight, I suppose. Thank you once again.

ShooterGeorge profile image

@ Concerned,

In my opinion this need not be considered as a drop because many things have happened in between during the two Blood tests.

ShooterGeorge profile image

@ indiacratus,

Extra loading was not completely preplanned. It was after all these intakes that wife reminded that her checkup was due next morning. Since I have to accompany her & wait till her blood test & consultation are over, I was just utilising the time to get my blood test also done; that also was somewhat due.

Yes, 73 is a bit extra normal but as I am not on medication, no risk.

Goodluck to you too.

@ vyasbkn,

Thank you. If you do things properly, God does not have much role in this. If we do not do things properly, God will not do wonders.

Agree...but God=Luck never

Many people equate luck=God and think 99% covered by God/Luck

Luck is a bonus :) not sure to get always ....God he is always present and he plans things for everyone as a father plans...all inspiration which leads us to success is given by God always...its part of the planning...in the phases of difficulty ask yourself for solutions...its the God who answers your questions...gives you inspiration...if you retain the trust on HIm as a 3 year old keeps trust on his father...its important to develop a relationship with invisible power which operates the universe like Operating System :)...and through prayers we maintain this relationship
