can a uti cause glucose in the urine. it was seen on dipstick. have never been told i was diabetic. my fasting glucose is always been low and no symptoms of diabetes. i did have a lot of sugary drinks and not the best food this weekend before test?

Accepted Answer

Glucose in urine: In rare cases i have seen glucose, especially low amounts like 50 -100  in urine in individuals who were not diabetic. You may be pre- diabetic though . Would treat the infection and follow up with  Hgb A1c and repeat urine glucose. I think some of the individuals who I have seen the positive glucose negative  diabetes  just had a low threshold for spilling sugar, which  may be the case here.

Question 6

what is the best medicine for diabetes?

Which type?: There are different types of diabetes. People with type 1 need Insulin right away. Type 2 patients can start with oral meds, such as metformin. Other meds may need to be added, and many type 2s eventually need insulin.

Question 7

what is the best way to treat diabetes?

Accepted Answer

Depends on details: The pancreas gland makes insulin, which is required because insulin makes blood sugar go into cells (blood sugar is the fuel for cells). In Type 2 diabetes, a person eats too much and puts lots of sugar into his blood daily. As time goes by, he overworks his pancreas by demanding lots of insulin from the gland. If he stops his bad habits early in Type 2 diabetes, his pancreas might not "burn out."

Accepted Answer

Diet and exercise: A balanced diet rich in fresh vegetables and fruits and low in sugars and low in saturated fats. Regular vigorous exercise, at least 30 minutes a day for five or more days/week. It generally helps to lose 5-10% of your weight, even if you are not overweight. Have regular checks with your doctor and periodic tests for fasting blood glucose and or hb a1c.
