Thanks, I hadn’t thought about fruit juice ‍♂️. I’ll give it a go

Hi all. Just a quick question. I’ve been invited to play tennis this evening, something I haven’t done in over 8 years [emoji33]. I was just wondering how I should try and keep my sugar level up. I generally average around 6-6.8 but I’ve noticed that when I have a particularly heavy workload...

I’m embarrassed to say I’m not sure. I had numerous blood tests done. The last blood test I had done tested for two specific things and was sent away to a specialist clinic for testing because the hospital didn’t do that test in house. I’m pretty sure that was a hemoglobin test and one other...

Hi, at the time of diagnosis I had a blood sugar level of about 18-19. I had no ketoacidosis. I’m 39, 6” 6’ and 108kg’s. I’m convinced I’ve been diabetic for years. I remember as a child and going through my teens that if I was hungry (i.e low blood sugar) my mood would change to bad very...

2 hours. Not really an option

Hi everyone. I’m new here and in a bit of a panic. I was diagnosed as type 1 on the 2nd of January this year but i’m sure i’ve been diabetic for a loooong time. Anyway, i’ve come away for a night and left my insulin supplies at home. I had everything packed and ready to go but left my bag by...
