Well you're not alone, because you've got this motley bunch going through it too with you ;) That makes me feel so happy hearing that!! So much comfort from you lot. So odd since don't actually know each other though! But it's nice to talk to people that don't know you personally but know...

Yeah I guess that's how I'm like. When I go for a meal with some friend they will all stop and wait for me but I just feel like everyone is watching. I don't want to feel like I'm making a big deal out of nothing and being like a drama queen. So I just think to myself man up and get on with...

Re: Glucose levels dropping what to do? Kim where did you get yours from it looks really nice!!!! Seen several but not quite like yours! Using a little bag at the moment but have found a case that I can keep all my pens and monitor altogether not quite trendy enough for a night out though :-...

I think iv been quite relaxed, not stressed myself out since being diagnosed 5 days ago. However the parents cant say the same, I love how this forum has a parent section so you can keep your worrying to yourself mum till you've been given advice :) Since being diagnosed it's my parents who have...

Thanks for all the replies. This is all so confusing for me still. It's just getting the hang of this all. I think for peace of mind i'l probably leave it at 10 for tonight. That is unless my levels have shot up again when I check before bed. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App
