    Ketones, advice please

    Thank you, I don’t feel un well at all. I feel fine, iv never had high ketones before, not even when I got diagnosed 2 years ago. The issue I have is that I don’t have any more ketone strips left to test later on, but iv been drinking so I hope it sorts itself out

    Ketones, advice please

    Hi iv just tested my sugars and they are high, so I tested for ketones which are 1.6 do I need to ring for advice or if I drink plenty will they go by themselves? This is the first time iv had high ketones so I’m unsure and don’t want to cause a fuss thanks in advance.
