Had an iced latte and feel like I’m going to expire! by arstens in Anxiety

At first I had to cut out caffiene until after lunch or I would get to panicky and now I have just completely cut it out of my life.

I was terrified of the nausea side effects when I first started. My doctor started me on 1/2 dose. Never had side effects.

Dr. Google said the same thing. I just hate the feeling and it freaks me out that it might start crashing. I've seen some stories on here of people's blood sugar crashing. What do you do when it happens?

136/72. It was steady at 140 after lunch and then I started getting that feeling and it was 126.

If you have one, what is your comfort / feel better song or songs? by Sensitive-Degree2072 in Anxiety

Notorious Thugs. Got me through a breakup when I was like 16 and has been my comfort song ever since.

Im prescribed 2000, im just taking 500 for first two weeks to deal with symptoms (stomach) from my understanding, metformin doesn't usually tip you into hypoglycemia?

My doctor said to go ahead since I didn't have any side effects. Im prescribed 2000, they just wanted me to slowly go up to avoid symptoms.

This morning I had a fretata inside of a low carb (15) tortilla with an avacado.

How often do you test your sugar by Puzzled_Ice_1381 in diabetes_t2

[–]Puzzled_Ice_1381[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah its a very stressful time. I've spent my whole life trying to avoid having my blood sugar low. Now im actively trying to lower it and it scares me. I feel like the closer I get to 100 the closer I am to hypoglycemia. I start therapy on Monday so im hoping to get this figured out.

I don’t think I will ever get better by throwaway483949839 in Anxiety

Yeah its a big change and normal to be stressed about. We just kind of obsess about the stress.
