A blood sugar reading of 585 ? Is that in America? Here in Australia our numbers are very different. My daughter has gestational diabetes and was told to keep hers around 7 but sometimes she goes up to 8. She tested me the other day and I was 8 but shot up to 10.3 after eating 3 slices of pizza. I have never had high blood sugar ... but have had high insulin and low sugar, which I fixed by eating a low carbohydrate diet. I will go to my doctor and ask for a three hour glucose tolerance test to see if I am fluctuating too wildly.
