I had diabetes before I was pregnant. Now that I am pregnant, how often should I monitor my BG levels? -

Will they let me take my insulin in my hand luggage on the plane? I am traveling only with hand luggage for a 3 days trip. Do i need to carry my prescription along with me?

I am not diabetic according to all my medical tests. However, I have a normal blood sugar reading of about 90 before breakfast and then after a moderate cereal-toast breakfast, my blood sugar goes over 200. Why does this happen?

Off late I have been experiencing constant fatigue even without any physical exertion. I am worried if it could be diabetes because my mother faces similar symptoms.

How often should I test my blood sugar, and what should I do if it is too high or too low? Are there home kits to check blood sugar levels?

My father is diabetic and experiencing severe itching in legs and it's scaly. Are these symptoms related to diabetes? How to knwo for sure?

I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes around 2 years back. fasting is between 90-110 and with food is 180-210. I take karela powder 30 minutes before meal. Also, do a mild exercises (not in routine) I have a software industry job of 10 hrs approx. Break fast and lunch time is fixed. But there is no fixed time of dinner. I skip some time, take salads or heavy food sometime. My question is is it necessary to take medicines? I mean I dont want my body to be dependent on diabetic medicines. I occasionally drink whisky (no other form of alcohol). 3-4 ciggs a day. my weight is 96 and height is 5'10. 2 years back I went to doctor as i got candidiasis on penis. so, there I came to know that its because of excessive sugar in body. From that day I have stopped eating sugar. Occasionally on festivals I take sweets. Please help me, the sugar is increasing slowly for me and I dont want to be a medicine dependent person. Organic things like karela powder, neem leaves, etc will help or not?
