Hi like you I have anaemia,I have iron infusions via iv and blood transfusion when needed. Last one was a couple of months ago when my hemoglobin was 4.6!!!! Vitamin d insufficiency too, but I now take a supplement to counter act this.....no joke falling asleep all the time...Lol....hope you get treatment for them both soon......

@axle 222 I'm on supplements for both. Trying to modify my food accordingly. Really tough for me as I don't eat beef.

Good morning everyone. 5.6 today morning

5.5 mmol an improvement. I've been having bizarre (too high) fasting BS for the last month or so. I've tried everything , stop eating after 7 pm, more exercise , stopped statins. Initially I thought it was due to a heat wave but when that passed and my BS didn't improve I got very confused. Last night I weighed myself and I'm 10 kg overweight :-( Which explains everything I've been experiencing. Back to low carb for me

Do you guys eat almost immediately on waking or do you leave it a while?

Hi, I don't/can't eat red meat but find I can help iron deficiency by eating cornflakes( dietics clinic gave me that tip). Wishing you well....
