Diabetes - Dawn Phenomenon Pls help

Sir no help from anyone.

I post again here in paragraph form my problem :

I am diabetic type 2. For past year , my fasting sugar levels are very high (180-220). Sugar comes normal at around 11 am and stays in normal range till midnight. After midnight my sugar levels rise.

I get up with feverish symptoms, headache, lethargy, loss of energy.

Right now I am taking metformin 500mg twice at breakfast and dinner. I was also advised lantus 20-30 units before dinner but that didn't help.

Please advise.

What is your chief complaint?

High Fasting sugar and feverish symptoms like headache, bodyache, laziness in morning. Gets better as sugar reduces. I feel lack of energy whole day.
Off late , I want to sleep for 10-12 hours and force myself out of bed after 10 hours also. Previously, 7-8 hours were enough.

When did this complaint start?

I am diabetic for past 10 years but experiencing above problems for past 1.5 years

What was going on at this time? ( examples: emotional upsets, disappointments, illness of others, accidents, injuries, travel, new foods or
exercises)

Thanks so much.

Starting it today itself.

Just one query. Nux Vom 200 has to be taken daily for 4 days or just 1 day.

Thanks again.

Hi Anuj and thanks for helping me.

After 4 days, I do not feel any difference but the day I took nux vom, I felt better in the morning but my sugar levels were still above 200.

My sugar levels fasting are still around 200 though dinner pp is at around 120.

Please advise.

Hi Anuj

Started Nat Sulp 6x from yesterday itself.

A few concerns :

1. My sugar fasting was 197 today morning but after taking first dose it fell to 160 in an hour.

2. My BP levels have risen quite much since I started treatment and as ferrum phos is discontinued, could it be kali phos is causing this. Its now at 140/95 levels inspite of medicine.

3. When should I take the dose at night , before or after dinner.

4. Also, as per my doctor, I go to hypo levels after midnight and hence, more glucose is secreted and hence, high sugar fasting as insulin production is very low in nights.

Thanks again for all your time and help

Regards
Mohit

Forgot to add that inspite of high fasting sugar, I was feeling much better in the morning as compared to previously.

Hi Anuj

I am feeling much more active than before.

But my fasting sugar still remains at around 200 levels though it goes down very fast in the day time and remains at 120-130 levels during the day.

Unfortunately, my fasting levels have not declined but as I wrote earlier, I feel much more fresh and active.

Pls advise and thanks
Mohit

Hi Anuj

My report as follows :

My fasting levels are around between 170-190.

However, I still feel lazy and have continuous headache , though better from past.

Also, have severe gas problem for past week.

Thanks and regards

Hi Anuj

My fasting levels continue to be very high around 180-200.

They come down to normal levels only by afternoon. And as stated previously, My night sugar levels are normal till 2am in morning after which they rise from 140 to 180 to 200.

I am now taking insulin in the morning at 7am .

Pls advise. Thanks
