Ever Get the Shakes??

[Anikaca77]

I went to the docs today...they said it seems like my sugar levels must be low at those times and she is ordering a round of blood tests to check everything to make sure everything is working well and she will call me with the results. Of course I'll need to fast for 8 hours yeah me!!

They did give me a free One Touch Ultra 2 with 9 free test strips, we had to try it out today.

So I'm going to keep it with me and if I feel funny I'll take my blood and see. I might try to do what that one website recommended just to see how my levels do change.

Hi Melissa,
I'm relieved to know that you've had a chance to talk to your doctor about this. As for the test strips for the glucometer, you might want to see if the strips are covered by your insurance as they can be pretty expensive. If you don't have insurance or they won't cover the test strips, consider contacting the company to see if they have a program to help with the cost.

Please be assured that you have my full support, prayers and positive thoughts for the tests to go well. If I can be of any help to you, don't hesitate to pm me. I'm always here for you!

Another thing that can cause shakiness is hyperthyroidism; I hope he's checking you out for that as well.
