Hi Everybody
Ive not been on here much lately as my depression has kicked me about some and have not been feeling social at all. Increase in sertraline meds will hopefully settle that. I am 1 month in to diagnosis and have struggled somewhat with the low carb eating lately. Ive now had 2 weekend binges (sat night) with eating carbs and such rubbish which has elevated my bg readings to 8.4. I have been averaging 6.6 in mornings first thing and 5.4 5.6 during the day. Is it dangerous to be going up to over 8? I understand that i need to keep under 5.5 but dont really understand what happens to my body when it is going into the not normal range.
Any advice would be gratefully received
