[QUOTE="jziggy, post: 1072943, member: 259681"] Thank you for your thoughts...It was a huge shock to me as the doctor showed me a graph and the reading was his screen. I was so shocked that I didn't ask any questions, however, I had to admit that I had not started the tablets that had been given to me a month previously as I was told I should take them as a precaution as my numbers were increasing. I stopped all sugar immediately and as it took me over a week to get a meter, I am not sure how high my sugars were but after cutting out everything for a week, my first reading was still 14 and has slowly come down over the last 3 weeks. I have to admit that I drank lots of Cappuccinos, Latte's and my diet was awful prior to my visit. I will be asking lots of questions next time I go :-) [/QUOTE]
