I am SOOO confused right now.
My doctor told me normal is 80-120.
The pharmacist gave me a piece of paper that read 100-150 is normal.Last night the ER doctor says 60-100 is normal.
What is normal??
If I go below 75, I get shakey, dizzy, feel like I will throw up or faint.
If I go above 150, I feel achy, tired, and flu like.
I have no idea what number I should be at because all the doctor's are telling me a different number.

I looked it up in my monitor handbook. It says pre-meal 80-120, post-meal <180, bedtime 100-140.
The levels you aim for are different as a diabetic than they are for a non-diabetic.
And I've found that rapid changes, even within the range, can make me feel crummy. Crummier I should say. I feel crummy all the time.
