Re: Could you avoid daily pill after diagnosed with type 2 diabetes #11 in A1C Test??
Can you please be more precise?
Precise on?
Re: Could you avoid daily pill after diagnosed with type 2 diabetes #11 in A1C Test??
I would ask to be precise on "how often he drinks Kaley chaney water"
I would also ask to be precise on what are your dad's numbers now (sugar levels)? How's his A1C levels are? How a diabetic can eat Mithai and still has normal sugar? Again it also depends how your body will react to the carbs.
On exercise, two hours of daily workout? That's amazing and kind a unheard. If you do resistance workout, sugar will spike but with cardio, it will help.

B12 is found only in animal sources, veggies wont help there.
hin33, you really have to sit down with the RD and work out meal plans, calorie ratios from carbs/fats/proteins etc., if you want this to be stress-free long-term. extremely low carbs has its own problems in the long run. this is the stuff RDs have been trained for years to help diabetics with, and diet is extremely important for a diabetic person. you really have to do this. did the doctor refer you to one yet?
No, actually his Endocrinologist appointment got cancelled.. it is next week now// ill ask him to refer him to one.. My niece is a registered dietitian.. so may be ill talk to her.
thanks again

1- Once a day in the morning.
2- Mostly between 140-250.
3- I know, right. At this age and mithai with sugar level... He's taking pill plus exercise. Its working very well for him so why not eat mithai when everything is working for him. Its not something that he's eating the whole box of mithai everyday. Once or twice a week, couple of pieces and that's it. He mainly do cardio and push ups. If you see him, you won't believe that he's diabetic coz he takes care of himself and of course my mom...
Any one have an idea about leg pinches. His doctors appointment i is 10 days away and he is been experiencing leg pinches of some sort.

Could be because of poor blood circulation.
Get blood fats(lipids) test.

Is not Fenugreek very HOT for the body.I am not talking about temperature or feeling warm in summer. I mean internal heat caused by imbalance.

Thank you for the reply, I'm really glad that he takes care of himself and your mom very well.
The numbers are VERY unhealthy, not sure if his doctor told him so, anything above 125 is bad. I know its better then 420. If I were you, I would take him to doc myself and have his blood test done, check for A1C level, Vit D and B12 (if he is taking metformin), A1C could be maximum of 7, lower the better and Vit D above 40,000, Vit B12 above 500 or close to 800. These are very important tests.

Is it leg pinches or leg cramps, the cramps happen usually at night while resting and its very painful for some seconds and then go away.

no not cramps - 'khichao in veins or something... ' so i said pinches may be bad blood circulation
