[QUOTE="Alexandra100, post: 1633193, member: 429870"] Not optimistic but realistic! I well remember, not very long ago when I was even newer to all this than I am now, writing agonised posts in response to some readings on my very first day of testing that seemed to me both disappointing and inexplicable. Someone told me to look at trends rather than single readings. I felt indignant. Yes, but on waking it said 4.9, I was so happy, but later it shot up to 7.8, OMG, and I'd eaten so few carbs - why? why? why?...It mattered, it was science, it was on my meter, it was TRUTH, it had to be possible to make sense of it somehow ... Now, I still get disappointed and puzzled, but ... life goes on, there is always another day, more readings, more hope, slightly different puzzles, new lines of thought to follow... [/QUOTE]
