Title: Diabetes
Post by: brickbatz on February 09, 2018, 03:08:55 AM: Last night my blood sugar was 187 (too many mashed potatoes). I did a search "lower blood sugar fast". There were several suggestions to drink 2 glasses of water back to back and urinate as soon as you can. Also suggested was eat something high in protein. An ounce of cheese was on the list. I drank 2 - 12 ounce glasses of water and ate some cheese. It lowered my blood sugar to 127. Still a tad high but I can live with that.

Its a horrible slow working disease if not handled correctly.
