Hi, I was diagnosed type 2 November 16. Been on low carb since Jan and lost 1 stone 4lbs.
Recently got a blood glucose tester and mostly managing to keep levels below between 5 and 7. Experimented with some high sugar/carb party food at Easter and saw a spike of 10.9!!
I'm going to be arguing with the diabetic nurse tomorrow about getting at least some test strips on prescription as I have the accu check mobile which is great and prints out lovely graphs from your pc, however the test cassette strips are heinously expensive
