[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 1593431, member: 85785"] Obviously I cannot say what it is or not, because I don't know lots of information. Your readings are normal, before and after the big number. Which for us is just under 20mmols. So yes a huge spike! But it could have been a rogue reading. If your readings are high or low, out of the ordinary, then retest. What did you eat to get that high? Are you on meds what are they? Have you a diagnosis of anything metabolic or endocrinology. I can relate to the panic attacks and anxiety as I had them really bad when before my diagnosis. Yes, diet and what you eat will ease the symptoms, going very low carb and intermittent fasting helped so much. Keep an eye on your blood glucose levels. If you test randomly then you cannot really see what happens with food, it has to be regimented and also keep a food diary, recording everything. I would recommend pre meal, one hour after first bite then two hours. If you find your blood glucose levels are more than 2mmols or 36 higher than your pre meal, at two hours after, then a food or combination of foods will be causing your higher levels. That food needs to be reduced in portion size or entirely. I am intolerant to potatoes, grains, rice, lactose or anything ending in ose! You might just need to reduce your carb to get where you want to be. Best wishes [/QUOTE]
