hello everyone, i am new to this website. I wonder if anyone could throw some light on this subject. I have been feeling less energetic lately and i have been sweating a lot { i was going to blame it on the credit crunch because everything else seems to be Only joking}
What it is, i have not been feeling myself for a few months now, dont seem to have much energy especially in the mornings, my energy levels seem to dip during the course of the day, and i have been sweating quite a lot. i will be 40 this year, my mother in law who is diabetic tested my blood on her meter, my reading was 8.1 this was about two hrs after eating a sandwich, she told me that was slightly high, so i went out and bought a boots home testing kit. the kit allows me to do two tests, you put blood on a testing strip which changes colour and then you match the strip with a colour test chart, my readings were 8 mmol/l when i fasted for ten hours and my second reading was 8 mmol/l 2hrs after eating my dinner, the reading may have been 8.1, 8.5 etc because there is no inbetween on the test card, I would be very grateful if someone could reply to this because i dont know if i am being silly and just worrying over nothing. Thank you
