Logging Good Blood Glucose Meter Results
When you finish your blood glucose levels check, write the results down and use them to see how physical activity, food intake and anxiety levels affect your blood glucose. Keep a close check on your record over several day spans to check for any subtle or dramatic changes. Monitor to see if your levels are too low or too high for several days in a row. If you are getting continuous highs or lows, you may need to alter some aspect of your diabetic care. Work with your physician or health care worker to learn what changes in your lifestyle may be causing imbalances in your blood glucose levels. Try to add new treatment options to your care program and then check subsequent levels to reach any positive or negative changes. Be patient as it may take time to employ and track the results of any new treatment options. Inquire with your diabetic supervisor as to a good means of communication and how to keep each other up to date swiftly.Keep in mind that changes in blood glucose levels also have an effect on your mind and emotional state. Your blood glucose numbers can leave you angry, upset, confused, melancholy, and depressed. It is easy to sometimes use the numbers to be hard on yourself. Keep reminding yourself that the levels are a good means of tracking changes based on your current care plan, not on whether you are putting the proper amount of effort in. Large fluctuations in blood glucose levels does not necessarily mean that you are doing something wrong or that you are not properly performing the plan. The results only indicate that you need to revise your diabetic health care plan until you get the levels under control.
Check And Monitor Your Keytone Levels
It is critical that you monitor your keytone levels periodically to determine your diabetic health. Keytones in the urine is a signal that your body is burning fat instead of glucose for the fuel needed to run your body. Your body uses fat when the insulin is not ready for fuel production. Keytones in the urine is more prevalent in patients with type 1 diabetes.
Urine tests are easy to administer and understand, but you must follow all the directions to get accurate results. Read the label that comes with your diabetic strips. Go over the directions and results readings with a specialist in diabetic consultation.
