Ok thanks. I have a meter will do some checks thanks

Not sure it changed much more concerned I need to get it down quickly or is not that urgent for a few weeks.

I’ve been T2 on diet for four years. In April, my Hba1c was 51, highest it’s been. My GP suggested wait until next check before drugs. I’ve kept weight stable but my lates figure is 59, so I guess I need treatment quite quickly ? I got my results from the NHS app, but my GP has said they can’t...

Day 6 and readings back to my normal

My reaction was negligible and so was my wife’s and we had different vaccines. I think it’s luck of the draw

Hi that’s really reassuring on both counts ! Thanks keep safe.

Ok mine was Astra jab and now it’s more than 48 hrs but spike less than yesterday, so perhaps it will continue tomorrow

Had a Covid jab on Thursday afternoon. No reaction but arm still sore. However my glucose readings are higher than normal. Can the jab cause this ?

Actually I do eat all those fish you mentioned. I was trying to say I don’t eat shell fish. Thanks for the other tips. I can increase eggs also. Is there any rule about food and bad fruit in general.

There are no sources locally so I had to comprise and eat chicken purchased locally. I could chew a...

Thanks so much for the suggestions: Yes I could ditch the "Toast" and go for a low carb cereal, I think they exist. I've really difficult diet issues, allergic to cheese and can't eat bacon or other red meats due ethnic reasons. I will review the post you suggested. Not really on a loose weight...

Thanks that’s helpful. Normal day. 1slice toast at breakfast, fish or chicken salad at lunch and decaf coffee. Fish or chicken with green veg at night. I don’t eat red meat and only white fish. No sweets, snacks or potatoes. I do have a glass or two of wine in the evening and a green Apple...

Diagnosed 3 years ago with T2. Managed diet control, but last January HBA1c crept up to 49. Cut down even further on carbs and tried to lose a little weight ( BMI =27), but lockdown didn’t help. Just had another HBA1c and now 51. I’m expecting to now have to take drugs, but hope I can manage...
