    No need to repeat what Hospital already does

    Where I live there is zero chance of any diabetes clinic. My GP has to handle everything.

    Struggling with food and open to suggestions?

    I really should update that, lol. I've not been on metformin for a while now, but on canagliflozin. I don't know if changing and having greater freedom (as such) would help, because I am still limited by what I can physically cope with and that's a narrow range to begin with.

    Struggling with food and open to suggestions?

    I try to do different things eg baking, roasting, but just the same few ingredients is really starting to repulse me. I find i cook food but then just can't stomach more than one or two mouthfuls.

    Struggling with food and open to suggestions?

    I can't tolerate peppers. I have a very low tolerance for anything remotely spicy.

    Struggling with food and open to suggestions?

    I'm autistic with ADHD, dysythmia and social anxiety disorder, as well as seasonal affective disorder, obviously diabetic (type 2), with fibromyalgia (very bad) and I've had two strokes. And I struggle with food. My last Hba1c was 81, my highest ever, and I've taken steps to cut carbs, cut...

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    6.8 today. Not entirely unexpected, as I was experimenting with one or two foods which I now know will cause me to spike.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    What are you eating the night or day before? Your breakfast shouldn't be lifting your levels that high.
