Has anyone ever experienced this?
I have been almost totally carnivore for over a year and lost some 50+ pounds over that time. I sometimes think i am in remission but only because my BS is around 72-85 when only eating carnivore but if I eat some carbs I can go past 185-220 and stay there for many hours so not sure if I truly in remission.
So my thinking a week or so ago, I did a 72 hour fast and use Keto Mojo to monitor my BS and Ketones. At around 48 hours I was hitting keytones around 3-4 and blood sugar stayed around low 70s. But at around the 67 hour (4:30 AM) I was up and measured 5 for keytones and still low 70s for BS.
Then the scary part hit. Within an hour I started feeling nauseous. by hour 69 I was sick. I measured my ketones twice with Keto Mojo and both times it only registered "High". Unfortunately I was scheduled for a fasting ultrasound in about 3 hours from that time so I just went without eating carbs to get out of that "High" state. Immediately after the ultrasound I went to a fast food place and got what I thought would be the highest in sugar and carbs. In about 1.5 to 2 hours after eating my keytones dropped and I felt recovery from the nausea.
Many doctors state diabetic ketoacidosis is not possible when one is type 2 diabetic.
Has anyone else ever experienced this?
Thank you so very much UK!
