I am totally disappointed , disgusted and disillusioned , with my diabetic dilemma .since 3 months ..For 15 years I was taking a diabetic medicine .. but 30 March 2015 , a very close friend insisted I visit his Doctor at Mahim Kapda Bazar Dr SD Jain,, I gave in went to meet him, a great person he instilled alot of confidence in me ..I was walking rigorously at MET Cricket grounds Bandra Reclamation , about 6 km average every morning .since 10 Feb 2015.
I had stopped eating meat , my family eats chicken everyday both times , I gave it up, red meat mutton is cooked sometimes , nobody likes fish in my family unless I bought rawas or gol.. sometimes .I ate one chapatti some gravy , or a vegetable dish.. no cold drinks , I donr drink alcohol, I dont smoke at all.
I walk a lot otherwise too , long stretches ..my weight was 68 kg.. I hardly go to doctors , if I fractured my leg it was to the bonesetter ..even my gall bladder problem that troubles me sometimes I have kept the operation on hold , once my diabetes is under control and for better times.
In January 1 2015
My blood sugar was 193 fasting and 342 post fasting..
No walking no exercise only Internet .couch potato.
Before I met Dr SD Jain ..9 March 2015
My blood sugar status ,,Fasting 240 Post Lunch 306
He changed my medication and called me after two weeks with my blood test report .
29 March 2015
It was 161 fasting and 283 post fasting 1.62 creatinine.
I took my lipid test etc..
He prescribed Tab Glynase 1 before breakast 1 after breakfast ..
Tab Janumet one before dinner one after dinner asked me to come see him after two months .. that will end by 31 May .
Yesterday I walked 6 .75 km at Bandra Met and this time decided to get my Blood sugar test at Lilavati Hospital Bandra ,, I got my 3 month Glycosylated Hemoglobin test done too,,
The reports came in last evening ,, hitting me hard .
30 May 2015
Fasting blood sugar 232 H
Post blood sugar .352 H
GlysHemoglobin Test 10 60h
MPG mean Plasma Glucose 257 MG/DL
So here I must mention I drink black tea , I dont take sugar or Equal at all , no junk food ,,So yesterday I took an appointment for 19 June for Dr Shashank Joshi highly acclaimed diabetologist endocrinologist..All my walking friends have been talking highly about him , he is out of the country but will return in June .
The strange part of my story is that initially I was told about Dr Shashank Joshi before I met Dr SD Jain , I was given the wrong name so I was searching for Dr Chirag Joshi at Bandra Turner Road and ended up thus to the second recommendation at the clinic of Dr Jain. .
I shall now go for my walk ,,I wanted to blog , this my kids take OJamin a pancreatic tonic , my wife said because I stopped it my blood sugar has gone up, she put me back on Ojamin this morning ,Bandra Medical boss Mr Nair was telling me that Salman Khans help takes Ojamin and his blood sugar has come down considerably and he told me Salmans dad Salim Khan sab recommends it to a lot of people ,, .
I was taking Ojamin for many years I simply stopped it ...
My blood sugar 28 December 2014
was 178 Fasting
275 post lunch.
So this in short is my Diabetic Dilemma ..I have posted it that some doctor friend on Facebook will give me a second opinion.. or timely advise , Thanks
