Thankyou so much. I've been really strict with myself diet wise as I'd prefer to not take meds. I'm not sure I will ever get to 5's but aiming to get more exercise lose mire weight so never say never.

This morning Dec 21st it was 7.6 which I'm over the moon with as it's nearly a month off Diapaglozin Forxiga and only on Ozempic once a week. Hoping thst when I speak to Diabetic Nurse Jan 5th I can stay off pills. Have to see what HBA1C shows n cholesterol I guess. But I'm also losing weight so...

Evening Pipp No control solution was supplied, my last HBA1c was 54 which they were happy with. My diabetes is not really food driven but due to the sheer volume of pain I'm in with my body. Fibromyalgia and damaged neck n back mean sugar is flooding my body to combat chronic pain . I'm seeing...

Hi I have been given a Glucomen testing kit by my Dr's but recently (its about 5yrs old) the readings have been crazy high. I purchased a new Sinocare meter and the readings on the new meter are always 2 sometimes 3 points lower than on the Glucomen. Has anyone else experienced this kind of...

Perseverance is key Charlotte I got down from 96 to 48 so it is possible. I was very strict with myself as pain is my biggest problem for setting sugar off. Keep the faith, an if they don't call you call them be right nag I've had to be. Xx

Good afternoon Only just seen this my fasting sugar this morning was 8.4 that's the lowest its Bern in weeks. This is going to be fluctuating a bit as I've gone off my Farxiga for couple weeks as we (Dr & I) try to see if it will stop me peeing every 40 mins. If it does then med change is on...

My Dr had ne on Gliclazide and I ballooned. The diabetic expert program and clinic at hospital took me off it and put me Farxiga. I lost over a stone in 3mths. When I next saw my Dr he said I'm glad your off the gliclazude that's a weight gainer no good for you!! I swear there are days I...

Greetings On looking up dyspraxia think I suffered that a bit after brain trauma I discovered Daniel Radcliffe has it. Considering we are all in the boat of dealing with some hefty invisible illnesses these days. It never ceases to amaze me how nasty some folk can be :( Hope you find what you...

Hello I've recently started to struggle with sugar since Ozempic has become hard to source. Before then my sugar was well controlled at 52 HBA1C now my readings are double figures and I need to get them sorted fast so thought I'd use the offer n join up hopefully it will help get back on track...
