The more I think about it it must be a mistake as I have noticed on the card I was given date tested given as 1/7/2010. I was last tested in June 2010. Mind you the first test was in May which they messed up, hence a repeat test in June (no results yet) and this one no idea when done. Just...

Hi folks, this is rather odd thing that happened when I went for my yearly HBA1C test. Went in June 2010 and basically forgot to ring surgery for results. Today was asked to go to surgery to pick up my haemoglobin D Punjab card. Well I thought whats this all about, as I never had this test or...

Best petition Ive seen to help get test strips, I asked my Diabetic Nurse for them after buying a meter and she nearly collapsed on the floor in shock. Was like asking for free holiday in the sun. Just had my Blood tests and H1bc was 9 this was put down to diet or lack of control with diet.If...

So true Im looking at what was causing the spike and think I discovered the culprit Coffee creamer, since I bought a tester and scripts I decided this morning to test after 1 hr after having my morning coffee plus creamer and surprise I see a 6 point rise in BS. Today I go back to semi skimmed...

Yeh I know just did a re test and now 20.2 so going down will retest in morning to see what it is, Im starting to do meditation and get back into reg cooked meals 3 times a day I've been without a cooker for 4 weeks and diet been all over the place so now can start working on low carb and as...

rofl :lol: funny you say that same here I was under massive amounts of work related stress and came out with diabetes and a stress at mo I noticed my BS is way to high 17.0 to 26.5 Mind you had to buy my own meter and gear to discover it :roll:

Hi all, been reading around the topics and is it right in thinking stress can be a indicator in hight BS readings?

I found willies bars at mammadeli or something and was 2.40 a box x 2 bars and it tasted good and like yours very smooth, might buy more :D

Anyone any thoughts on real choc for instance Willies Cacao range.

Thanks Ken, why i like the kits instead of the jars of sauces is that I know what is going into the curries, but will as you mentioned test just before and 1 to 2 after to get used to testing as the way I see it rather spend the money on testing now instead of waiting till I find out what I'm...

Thanks ken, I normally buy spice packs out of ease and just add chicken onions ect I'm thinking of brown rice as a change, will check out the tandoori curries and after i get some strips for my meter will commence better testing and as you mention 1 hr before and 2 after to see effects :-)

As a lover of curries and spicy food I am wondering about the effects on my diet, as i normally use lean meat peepers garlic and so on and cook in ghee has anyone noticed any effects on BS levels? im trying to get my diet under control and got my own testing meter as cant get one prescribed...

Thanks guys, although things seem dark at the moment I am hoping something comes along in next few weeks, I just found it rather annoying that all my life I have followed the rules, paid taxes and all on time, then in my time of need I'm treated like dirt. Instead of creating false reasons and...

Hi all, as I am about to leave tied accommodation and popped down to my local housing office to try and get somewhere to live it was interesting to be told this: You should not have left your employment no matter how much it effected your health. Diabetes is not a reason for priority housing...

Well not as bad as I thought all blood tests came back within normal figures and my cholesterol was 3.5 so got put on simvastatin 40mg and asprin 75mg The only hight test was blood sugar at 7.5 fasting test. Feet test no problems as well :) :) what do you guys think of the results?
