This can lower blood sugar levels too much. Watch for signs like shaking, sweating, not thinking clearly, or fainting. If these symptoms show, give your father some sugary juice or soda immediately. Monitor him closely. Call for medical assistance if needed. Be more careful counting out medication doses next time.

My father was suggested to take Glimpride 1 mg along with Dapa 10 mg but by mistake he took Glimpride 2 mg
Male | 78
Your dad took too high a dosage of his medicine. He could feel woozy, shaky or tired. Glimpride 2 mg is stronger than his 1 mg dose. It can cause blood sugar levels to drop way too low. Give him sugary foods or drinks to boost his sugar. Watch him closely. Let the doctor know right away what occurred.

Rbs of 6.9mmol/l should I get worried
Male | 26
A 6.9mmol/l higher-than-usual blood sugar. You'll likely feel thirsty often and drained, need to go baathroom frequently. Not eating healthy or exercising enough might cause this. Making diet and lifestyle changes helps. Opt for nutritious meals and move more regularly. Track those sugar levels closely as you progress.

Few weeks later i had started experiencing nocturnal diabetes ... The thing i am unable to wake up in the morning ... My roommates used to wake me up by use of honey and sugary items.. this thing scares me alot ...please help me out ...Thank you

Night hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar in the evening, is complex. Being unable to wake up due to this is alarming. It happens when your sugar dips during sleep. You might need to alter your insulin doses or timing under medical supervision. Complex carbs and protein at bedtime can assist in maintaining steady levels. Monitor your readings carefully. Discuss any worries with your doctor.

Female | 22
Diabetes is challenging; high blood sugars deplete energy, causing issues. Adhering to insulin regimen and dietary habits proves crucial. Physical activity, however modest, aids glucose regulation and wellness. Persistent symptoms necessitate consulting healthcare professionals for tailored recommendations. It's vital to prioritize self-care through medication adherence, nutritious choices, and regular movement. Seeking medical guidance when difficulties persist ensures proper management.

My mother has accidentally eaten 20 amaryl mv 1mg tablets is it lethal ?
Female | 46
Consuming 20 Amaryl MV 1mg tablets can prove extremely hazardous. This medication lowers blood sugar levels. Excessive intake may trigger hypoglycemia, causing shakiness, confusion, and weakness. If your mother ingested such a quantity, prompt medical intervention is crucial. Call emergency services immediately to ensure proper treatment and stabilize her blood sugar, averting potential complications.

Male | 34
These levels suggest diabetes - too much sugar in the bloodstream. Don't ignore this red flag. Taking action now prevents future problems. Eat healthy foods. Move your body regularly. Medication may also help, on doctor's advice. Control blood sugar before complications arise.

Female | 44
Consuming extra Rejumet 1000 instead of Rejumet 500 can result in hypoglycemia. Symptoms could entail being shaky, tired, confused, or sweaty. If this occurs, eating something sweet, like candy or juice, can help. It's essential to inform the doctor and get the proper medication.

Corn foot pain & I am a diabetic patient.
Female | 44
People with diabetes may experience corn foot pain. This annoying condition stems from shoes rubbing the skin. The corn leads to discomfort and soreness. Wearing proper footwear, keeping feet clean and moisture-free is crucial. Applying creams or pads can alleviate the affliction. Remember to frequently inspect for any cuts or injuries.

High blood sugar of 262 been high for 4 days
Female | 38
High blood sugar can cause excessive thirst, fatigue, and increased urination. If it is high for too long, like 262 for 4 days, it can be dangerous. This may be due to not taking diabetes medication, eating too much sugary food, or lack of exercise. To reduce it, try drinking water, eating healthy foods, and moving more. If this still doesn't help, you should go to a doctor.

My uncle is a 50 year old with a history of diabetes and arrythmia. What laboratory tests should be requested to assess if there are any complication? If a patient has CKD what blood value would most likely be elevated?
Male | 50
Lab tests help doctors check health issues. Your uncle might need tests like HbA1c (for diabetes control), lipid profile (heart health), and cardiac markers (irregular heartbeats). With kidney disease, creatinine levels usually rise. That may cause fatigue and swelling as kidneys struggle. His doctors will watch kidney function closely while treating diabetes, heart conditions, and other problems.

I've been given the wrong dose meds, I'm meant to be on 100mg a day, I have 50mg tablets, I take 2 a day. I've been given 150mg tablets, the prescription sticker on the box says 50mg, but it's a box of 150 mg tablets, I've been taking 2 a day for a couple weeks.
Female | 27
You accidentally took incorrect medication dosing. Two 150mg tablets daily exceeds your prescribed dosage. This elevated dosage could trigger adverse effects like headaches, dizziness, nausea. Promptly notify your doctor about this mix-up for proper dosage adjustment tailored to your needs.

Tingling, numbness, burning - those might be signs of diabetic neuropathy for those with diabetes. It happens when high blood sugar levels harm foot nerves. To tackle it: control blood sugar through good eating, exercise, and medications your doctor recommends. Get foot exams often, take good care of your feet too. This prevents worse issues from developing down the road.

My name is Minal Gupta. My fasting sugar level first time 110 and HBA1C level 5.7%. Is it normal?
Female | 31
A fasting sugar level of 110 is slightly higher than healthy, while an HBA1C level of 5.7% is considered within the normal range. High fasting sugar levels can be caused by not eating well. To deal with this, strive for a balanced diet and move your body more by engaging in light exercises or taking walks. Consult a doctor before taking any more steps.

Which fruits are good for diabetes
Berries, apples, oranges: ideal fruits for diabetes. Less sugar than others. You can enjoy them; they help regulate blood sugar levels. But be smart: eat proper portions. Pair fruits with protein or healthy fats to slow sugar absorption. Balance is crucial for managing diabetes through diet.

Male | 82
Sitara DM 1000 is a strong medicine for diabetes. Your levels have been getting better which is a positive thing. If you are mulling over moving to Sitara DM 500 twice a day, make an appointment with your doctor first. They will assist you according to your exact health requirements. Skipping a conversation with your doctor before a medication change could be dangerous. Inform them of your condition and seek their opinion.

Female | 46
Your sugar remains elevated despite medicine. Too much sugar risks skin boils - red, painful lumps filled with pus. Diabetes often causes boils when sugars stay high. Lowering sugars prevent boils. Your meds or diet may need adjusting. It's wise to discuss concerns with your doctor soon.
