So am I supposed to ask my doctor to do a OGTT?
You can. Many people do. Many doctors refuse. Then they come to us. Call 859-721-1414.
I apologize and mean no harm but could Dr.Jesus slow down his explanations? So very hard to follow him. Thank you.
I watch all these videos at 2X speed and rarely think that anyone is talking to fast…..
@@km-bo3zx He's blitzing though the Power Point slide presentation bullets by simply reading them verbatim instead of actually calmly explaining them in a way that enhances understanding and communication.
@@drott150 You have the ability to pause and/or slow down videos.....
@@km-bo3zx Do you have the ability to slow down and actually _understand_ what I just said?
@@drott150 Wow, I suggest a way for you to improve your viewing experience and you respond by being sarcastic? Nice job…..
Get your homa-ir score. Very useful. get your fasting glucose and fasting insulin blood tested at the same time and calculate it yourself if a doctor won't do it or doesn't know how.
thank you for this information; I feel like I was a victim of this like a decade back even before that, but at that time they did determine I was borderline pre-diabetic - they were at least honest and told me they weren't sure what I was, a few years later when I injured my kidneys, I instantaneously became completely blind in less than two months, and at that time my A1c was above 16, the doctors and endos I talked with didn't everrun any tests or ask any questions for several years would just throw something simple like metformin at me based off a POC glucose reading
A1c was above 16?? Sure this is correct? Thanks
@@ethimself5064 yes this was back in 2017 October basically the recovery period after hurricane Harvey, first time we legitimately got snow, and our baseball team won the World Series (haha I was since my blindness my memory has gotten super sharp); I remember at the hospital POC glucose reading was 921 and I only remember my systolic it was at 2:52, couple of days prior at work we checked my blood pressure and it was if I recall 101/59 don't remember my heart rate because obviously was six years ago - they suspect my A1C was around that number for several years it was probably lower before that
@@SlicedZucchini You lucky to have survived the A1C alone
@@ethimself5064 yeah you don't have to tell me that, little over five years of dialysis and six years of complete blindness, I'll tell you this though, the thing that kept me going so I guess the best way I can say it is what protect me most of the time I was there my foot and take when I was younger and I stopped eating fruit and I started working more and eating more processed food especially after the destruction of my kidneys by too high dosages of ibuprofen, I think the sugar stayed at that level for quite a while even when the kidney was damaged for about five months if I had gone to the hospital one week later I would've been 6 feet under ... December yes I had high A1c was the same time I had high level of depression, so I have about two hours of sleep a day and it was always doing today it was probably the most miserable time of my life but when I got back into full action I was much better until I injured myself and took too many painkillers and when it Kenny's went away everything else fell apart the kidneys were basically my last lifeline for my body,
I've been keto low carb for 6 years now. 😂 I don't need to test my OGTT; I just assume I'm diabetic and eat appropriately. I checked my blood glucose before, after meals; it would go to 120s after meal if I ate more carbs than my usual "keto" carb amount. It usually hovers in an equilibrium of 80s-90s.😊
I dont like swallowing glucose, so did my own, eating rice chex with soy milk (rarely eat rice chex), it was a sour cream container with it brought to lab draw place as also needed a homocsyteine. Results of 50 on insulin after 1 - 1 1/2hrs. Glucose was high for several hrs till rode bicycle then dropped quickly to 75. Yrs ago did 2 hrsglucose with an apple and banana (dont like, but better than glucose straight)- hi results. Did ask eye Dr yrs ago if had signs of diabetes, No. Wonder if cupping of optic nerve is a sign.
It’s interesting an ad came on before the video started for the diabetes drug Jardiance with an obese female dancing to the joys of the drug?
Will miracles never cease? 🤣
Why eat properly and exercise when you can just take a pill?
Banting, Best, and Macleod...1922, not 1972. Paulescu ... 1921.
OGTT will be problematic for keto/low carb adherents.
OGTT? Thanks. In detail if you not mind as I simply do not understand how this works. Thanks again
Oral Glucose Tolerance Test. For those of us who don't really eat carbs, the results may not really mean that much due to the fact that being fat adapted, and carb avoidant renders the response to the ingestion of 'foreign' substance (pure glucose) not really indicative of the response if the body had a chance to get used to it. The so-called 'second meal effect.'@@ethimself5064
My understanding is you just have to eat 150 carbs daily for 3 days before taking the test.
I shall investigate within this Channel./Thanks@@jerseyjim9092
@@jerseyjim9092yes. If I don't eat any carbs for one day and next day I eat some carbs my BG will spike very high. If I eat some carbs daily I can keep my BG under 140
