@cekkk I’m responding to your post in the discussion about Jardiance medication and kidneys.

You mention swimming and a “question about pool temps”. I s that supposed to be in a different discussion?

You mention “Guardians”. Do you mean Jardiance? Did auto correct spelling get to your post?

You mention glucose levels and 118. That is a pretty good glucose level. But you said “I haven’t had readings in the teens and twenties for 4 or 5 years”. If you are still talking about glucose levels, you shouldn’t. Teens and twenties is way too LOW for glucose levels! Normal is 80 - 120 ish. This can vary for individuals depending on other medical conditions and medications. Has your provider given you a glucose level range recommendation?

Yes, which is why I said I was going to post a question about pool temps.

You said this can very for individuals. Did you mean this can vary for individuals?

When I was first diagnosed with type 2, my doctor suggested I not eat until I got glucose level down to 130. On my next visit he suggested 120.

High glucose levels result in high hemoglobin A1c, numbers, do they not? I do understand that at my age a higher fasting glucose level is permissible, but is not a lower one healthy?

I'm not one to put much stock in feelings, but I do feel I have been trolled just a bit.
