Thanks that’s very interesting, i’ve had it once or twice since then but on an arm ) very random and my ankle both separate times .

sorry i forgot to say it was 6.2 after eating

My Bs was 7.2 after waking in morning . I’ve had wholemeal toast ( 16g) carbs and two scrambled eggs . I’m wondering if anyone knows why this is please ?

Thanks - i’m going to finish eating by 7.30 tonight which will be 3,hours before bed .

Thankyou - yes i will see how it goes as that was the first time that’s happened .

Hi thanks , i wasn’t sweating at all just so hot my bed sheets were very hot too from me . i’m going to put it down to diabetes it’s just my bs was 8.2 i wouldn’t have thought that would have caused that to happen . i did have some digestive biscuits quite late in about an hour before bed

Thanks , i’m thinking it wasn’t like a temperature for an infection - i dint have that kind of temp- i was just my back, legs etc were so hot to touch and feel that it woke me

Hello I’m fairly new to the diabetes and have recently started medication . Last night i woke several times due to being boiling hot my skin was hot to touch ! I had a glass of water wondering if bs was high and i tested it was 8.2. This does t seem very high to me but could it have been this...

Thanks- i was wondering if it could be the banana . i’ll definitely test before and after then .

Hi - i’ve recently started metformin -1 500mg a day - been on for 5 days so far . Had nuts and banana 1 hour ago and blood sugar mmol says 9.2 ? is this normal i would have thought it would be lower by now?

Thanks , yes i was thinking same . 48 is just a pre dangerous level that diagnose at - my husbands not diabetic and his ha1bc is 38

Thananks for the reply . yea i’ve spoke with my gp today and she says for sure over that period of time .

wondering if diet and excersise reduces ha1bc faster than the metformin medication ?

Thanks , i would like to do low carb and no medication . i’ve done lowered carb before and lost the excess weight and lowered my ha1bc . i’m just wondering if being pre diabetic for a long time before a diagnosis at ha1bc would cause issues with healing

Thankyou for your reply jo. i was wondering if being pre diabetic for a long time ( higher than normal ) but not diagnosis level could cause the symptoms if cellulitis not healing faster than it did with the antibiotics. .
