I used my BS kit for the first time in months today and was terrified when, 2 hours after breakfast (2 slices of 50/50 bread with pate and 2 cups of coffee with milk and a little sugar), the result was 23.3.
Waited an hour or so before having something for lunch (2 fillets of smoked mackerel). Have eaten nothing since and drunk nothing except sparkling water and just tested again and it's at 16.2 which is still really high!
I daren't eat anything this evening though I have a piece of chicken and salad I was planning to have.
I came back from a not great holiday recently, in which I was quite stressed a lot of the time. Food intake was fine and didn't overdo carbs but I did drink masses of lager every day, continuously through the day and evening (masses of water as well). To cap the end of an (Im)perfect holiday, I slipped on a slimey rock by the sea and landed on my tailbone which has been bruised and painful ever since.
Have I now damaged my pancreas and made the diabetes worse? Why isn't the BS level going down?
