0900 this morning Fasting 9.3.
I have not been to the doctors yet.
A week ago I started taking readings and tried to Understand what was going on. Do I, Don't I have diabetes.
At 78 yearsand 13 stone I cut out cakes, bread, potatoes and tried to eat carefully and lost about 4 Lbs.
taking various readings during past week. 2 hours after, and overnight fasting my readings have been btween6.3 & 8.7.
So this mornings reading has rung alarm bells. I will take a letter to my doctor and then wait the standard 3 weeks for an appointment.
Oh! by the way my last night's meal at 1800 hrs was cooked meal without potatoes, 2 pork sausages(plenty meat) and plenty of vegetables. any comments or suggestions would be most welcome. I am about to start on a big learning curve.
What do carbohydrate readings mean when it states "of which ?% are sugar"
