Hi I am suffering from type 1 diabetes which is diagnose in oct'20 and my age is 30 yrs. I admitted at that time in the hospital due to severe vomiting issue and after some testing on behalf of cpepetide-0. 5 I am declared type 1 diabetic. Since then I am following diabetic diet and taking human actrapid 6 unit 3 times a day and insulin basalog 6 unit in night. My blood sugar now remain almost 120 fasting and 150 in pp. Average sugar is 140. But all of sudden yesterday in the morning I feel vomiting and when I measure sugar it's 371 and I have pain near navel area. Also after consulting to a doctor he suggest me to take some medicine pantop dsr, darolac, doxy 100, zincovit, norflox tz. It give me some relief but still some pain is around. And I can not eat food well like before and food tastes is not good also. My sugar level is still around 300+ for two days. Pls suggest me how to overcome this. I loose weight also and look thin.

Hello, Thanks for the query. I have seen the details written. It is good to see that you have been maintaining glucose levels in a good range. The sudden increase might have happened either due to to a change in dietary intake or missing or reducing the Insulin dosage. To maintain strict glucose levels monitoring Insulin dosage (both rapid acting and basalog. You may have to increase rapid acting insulin by 2 unitsat least twice and similarly Basalog may also be increased by 2 units. You have to monitor fasting and PP more closely. Do not allow blood glucose to go too high. As regards your weight, at your height ideal weight for you is 61 kgs, so 70 kgs is quite high, that gives a BMI(Body Mass Index) of 26,5 kgs/Sq meter(Normal < 23 kgs/Sq meter) which is in the category of over weight. Hence, there is a need to reduce weight. I hope you understand. If glucose is well controlled weight is maintained. But if you have high glucose then due to more glucose lost through urine weight can be lost. However, for you there is a need to reduce the weight. Thanks.
