Never thought I would be one to suffer from health problems, but I have a lot of the symptoms a diabetic seems to.

Anyone else here a Type II diabetic that could steer me on what to do regarding controlling blood sugar, insulin sensitivity and gear use?

Thanks.

First things first, go to the doctor and get evaluated. Don't diagnose yourself on the internet and don't let "internet gurus" diagnose you.

U would need Dr as above.
A1C and reg fasting glucose...

My Dr ordered a1c poor fella, my lipids went up and glucose was 116 fasting in July!!!
What he didn't know is I dropped t3 and t4 12 days before... had contest took the hit.

I am on GW sarm atm and getting TUDCA or UDCA in route Friday...

I am not Dr but if u don't have Adipose fatty tissue around mid-section and or been on anything like insulin to mess with it taking hgh and eating while dosing high.... u prolly do not have type 2 diabetes!!!

Gear also affects glucose levels, like blasting and the time we stop. Body just has to adjust is all. It's does with 4-6 weeks...

Anyway good luck. I have diabetic prick device and I measure mine often to see hgh and if it's elevating my blood sugar..
I have 80-90 glucose an hour after dosing or an hour after large meal.

A1C test and HGH use scared me about flawing real result from being on something like the thyroid and dropping before I can come back. That alone the thyroid will throw everything with glucose and lipids off in that recovery period

Have in-law skinny as rail too with type 2...
He has a pot belly though and carried it for 17 years with drinking... adipose tissue builds around liver and fatty liver..... is what body does to think it doing itself favor with having glucose right there to feed starving tissues thru Gluconeogenesis. Reason glucopage used alot in type 2.
Problem is glucose needs insulin.
But cells reject insulin.
This is most common with genetic conditions predisposed of them.
But if anyone predisposed stays within normal bmi and doesnt allow gut and high carb sugar meals to create it, not likely.
There is other auto-immune forms often classified type 2 that are what they are.

But in 90% type 2 cases if predisposed by genetics, keep bmi in check without belly fat, eat healthy and exercise and it will not happen.....

Another thing I learned, keeping bmi of over 33 to 34 most of year no matter how much muscle and bf in check.... fatty liver will begin after a decade to 15 years, body has to choice to fuel muscle on strict diet.
Well fatty liver insulin resistance type is very likely. At 43 I now keep my bmi around 30 with bf 7%-13% on average mostly around 10%...

Alot of factors come in to play, lipids, thyroid suffiency among others.

Drs treat lipids with Statins.... insufficient thyroid will cause lipids to rise always!!! Most Dr's don't even check reverse t3 and have no clue how or they trained to give a pill for symptom instead of the route cause.
Gold standard for obesity used to be t3... back then type 2 diabetes was not common like today. Sure habits bad ones play but maybe changed approaches are real blame
Thyroid also control glucose in many ways..
I am rambling... lol! But diet nutrition exercise with never neglecting self, very uncommon to developed type 2 diabetes..
But there is always an underlying cause and our Dr's today fail to treat us instead a pill for a symptom and they have no clue about nutrition. Most order wrong test and not enough test to treat cause..

I made typo... adipose tissue should of been visceral fat (around organs) lack of exercise poor diet and predisposed....
Skinny person with type 2..

Still linked to habits, diet, lack of exercise and fatty liver etc...

Again for bodybuilders... the main cause is bmi too high forces visceral fat around liver to fuel muscle.
Very common when bodybuilder stay over 32 bmi most of year!!! A decade or 2, odds against the big guy!!!

lol... I do not have Type II diabetes.

I had some diabetic symptoms and it freaked me out, but my roommate who IS diabetic had a glucose monitor, we pricked my finger about an hour after i ate 2 bean burritoes and it read 108 which he said was real good.

I have a small amount of fat around midsection but honestly I think it's mostly bloat from test and EQ with no AI. Other than that im pretty lean

I thought 108 would put u close to a "pre"diabetic state. When i had a score of 111 it was highlighted and i was talked to about neing careful and whatnot. Im gunna do some researchcos i could be wrong and i would imagine a diabetic would know before i would....

Normal glucose readings range from 80-120mg/dL.

We bribed a coworker for 20bux to chug a jug of maple syrup. He did and we took a glucose reading. The monitor read 'HI'.....our glucose monitors only read up to 500mg/dL! Needless ta say he got a little sick and was out-of-service for awhile. We started an IV and gave him a bolus of saline to thin out his sugar level. He was 'Ok' a few hours later.

Is your co-worker "mentally challenged"?
 
Does this also mean my insulin sensitivity is nothing to worry about or is that irrelevent to a glucose test?
