  • Endocrinology test in

    Testosterone is 216 out of 1100. Got prescription for 10cc cyp bottle plus refill. Also found out i am diabetic. Have to see a diabetic dietician, but i already know what to do. Have to do this for about 3 months. If fasting blood sugar still over 120 then he will prescribe metformin. Nice thing is it helps in weight loss. Most likely the adipose fat. So while being diabetic means a pre-contest or contest diet is now the norm for life. Oh the joy. I hope i can have a treat now and then.

    Start cardio tests friday.

    Good luck brother. I'm half tempted to get tested for diabetes. Just too scared to do it.

          Good that you found some answers, chesty. With the right eating, you have the ability to NOT have diabetes. The good thing is that you know how to eat right

            True. It seems though that most of the high blood sugar comes from being asleep for 8 hours. Unfortunately once you have it you always do, but yes you can control with diet. Metformin if you cant, but that helps fat loss with diet and is ultra safe so i should be good.

            Get tested if you let it go you will cause irreversible damage to heart and other things.

                My Mom was diagnosed at age 60. Completely changed her eating and lost 60lbs. managed to not have to take anything for years but she does take Metformin now

                    Cutting out carbs is helping but instill get really high after meal and fasting readings. Guess its gonna take a while for thimgs to settle down

                      If it's type 1 diet won't fixit but if type 2 diet can make it go away.

                        It will be a type II diet. So far as long as i have no carbs at all it seems to come down quite a bit. But living on no carbs for next 100 years isnt gonna be fun

                          So even quinoa, oats, yams when eaten with protein send your levels soaring?

                            I don't think being on no carbs at all is what most diabetics need, however, for you it may be different. What is important is more complex carbs and at the right times. I am not a doc though so this is just based on my opinion and what I have seen others with type 2 do. Do what works for you and even if you start with minimal carbs, you may adjust in the future when your glucose is more stabilized.

                              It is lower during day with minimal carbs but if i go to long between meals the leves go up. I just had mixed veggies and baked potato with salad and some pork. I think the potato bloated me out. Rice doesnt do that. Im a little nervous about any carb type so im essential sticking to cave man diet. Levels have improved, bp is way down too. Ive lost roughly 6lbs since Monday and cutting carbs. It helps to to get into a keto mode. I just checked tonight and definitely in ketosis. Not much, but i just started though.
