i mean do these symptoms occur just when your sugar levels are high or can they occur all the time...

k cheers just tryna find out if my symptoms are due to diabetes or not , just a bit of a grey area i guess!

was wondering if sypmtoms such as slightly blurry vision, weeing a lot and being hungary and tingling occured at very high levels of diabetes or if they occure when reading are slightly out, thanks.

kk cheers that 3 month test was in range so i guess its ok then.

do you have to be diagnosed based on a fasting BSL?

you think monitering on a day to day basis is the best way?

no i havnt been diagnosed i dont no why that is there, iv bin to my gp and he did a 3 month test which was 5.1 i think, but the reason im asking these questions is i have done some monitering at home and have noticed some higher results and was wondering how high readings had to be 'normally'...

the most iv had after two hours is 6.8 but im having the exact diabetic symptoms which is just making me ask if youd get such symptoms if your readings wernt going above 10 ish sorry if im repeating myself just trying to get sum info really appreciate any help and thanx for your responses.

any idea how high the sugar readings normally are for these symptoms to be present? are they usually p[retty high? cheers.
