Hello! This is my fist post here. I just want yo say thank you all for being here for one another! I believe this will benefit us all! Ok, exercise and blood sugar levels. I have had two Drs. Handle my diabetes. The first specialized in diabetic medicine. When I told him my bs went up after exercising, ( even thought my blood sugars were going down overall, which was ok by me! ) he would get upset and tell me "I was the only person in America this happened to, because exercise ALWAYS brings blood sugars down!" this, of course, scared me.
My current Dr. Tells me: "Jacque, everyone is different, what works for some, might not work for others. You have to experiment, try things and see what works best for you."
I also have Fibromyalgia, walking burns my legs and riding A trike ( when I can, ) is my favorite way to exercise, besides swimming.
Just remember, this is not a cookie cutter disease, find the things that work for you, move however you like, just move! Movement and exercise will make an overall difference, if not an immediate difference in you numbers!
Ok! Enough from the long ended woman!
Jacque
