blood sugar

After my surgery, the Dr. took me off of my diabetic medicine except for my fast acting insulin which is now at a lower level. I go to bed and my blood sugar is ok but in the morning it is now high. I do go to my diabetic Dr. in a few days. But I am not eating anything with sugar, my liver is making it.
 
I hope your able to come off of everything completely and things level out for you soon! How is your recovery so far? I hope your feeling better now that you are a few weeks out!
 
My recovery so far is good. I am 2 weeks out and back to work. My blood sugar hasn't leveled out yet. If it is high when I eat and I take any insulin, it then goes too low later in the day. I can't seem to win. But tomorrow I see my diabetic specialist so hopefully she can get me balanced.
 
I seen my diabetes Dr. today. She changed / added back in some of my medicines temporary for a few weeks. She thinks I should be off my medicines by next month, just need to settle in. I sure hope she's right. I had the surgery specially for the diabetes.
 
I had surgery for my diabetes on May 28, 2019 and so far my blood sugars are not coming down. I am not on any diabetic medications right now and I have a 6 week check up in 2 weeks. How long before my blood sugars come down? Or maybe they wont. That is the reason I went through all of this.
