Obey me Pancreas...OBEY!
Obey me Pancreas...OBEY!

Greetings all! So this is a fairly quick update on the goings on with my wacky Pancreas. As some may know, the D-Rex had lowered my dosage of Metformin to once a day. He would have taken me off the Bydureon injections if I had wanted but I wanted to go with his medical skills and knowledge. SO... after a mouth or a little over... my fasting readings had increased a lot. I decided to switch back to the Metformin twice a day and not take the once a week Bydureon pen. That was almost a week ago and my readings have improved dramatically. However... I think I am still getting too much medications. My sugar tends to drop suddenly even after I eat a meal. This makes me think I may need to be off the Invokana. The plan is to keep a log of how my levels are doing after I take a couple of weeks off the Invokana so I can share the data with D-Rex. I am a bit unsure if this is a good move or not but if I start to experience high numbers again after a couple of days without the invokana... I will go back to taking it. I may have to eat more to avoid the sudden drops which I can do but I still want to watch what I eat and get more good carbs in me and proteins. I need both to have the energy to get my weight training done properly. It's tricky to maintain B.S levels and eat enough to build muscles but I'm trying my best to balance the two.
One way or the other this damn Pancreas will submit to my will! Obey me Pancreas...OBEY!
Have a great weekend all!
