Voices of Diabetes

I am a 74-year-old male, and have recently had some drastic changes in my blood sugar (glucose). All of a sudden, after years of reasonable blood counts, and no weight gain, my blood counts have gone to extremes – as low as 55 mg/dL and as high as 500 mg/dL.

I have put on 35 lbs within 3 months, while eating a 1500-calorie meal plan, and exercising at least half an hour three times weekly. Fasting does not change the readings, nor does varying meal times.
