Great podcast. Thanks for posting.

Thanks @Brunneria. I have a day off today to doing housework and I am running around instead of walking - well as much as you can run in a house. I am making an effort to go up and down stairs more than usual so fingers crossed that will help. My gP is away at the moment and he is the...

This morning I didnt have my usual eggs and had 8g of carbs and 2 hours later I’m at 10.6!! That was after a brisk walk and garlic! Worth a try but I feel I should have known better. Pleased it works for you though.

I have had to reduce my exercise recently due to being ill for a short while and family commitments. However BG was climbing before I did that. It is frustrating as life goes on and sometimes I just can’t exercise as much as I’d like to. I’ve had this in the past and it didn’t affect my BG then...

Thanks. Scary and it had crossed my mind

I don’t take any medication

Wow I will try that. I may not be popular tomorrow :) Thanks

New batch but confirmed by another meter several times. Thanks though.

Another thing I don’t understand is that although BG is much higher than normal, I’m still in mild ketosis at between 1 and 1.5. Any time I’ve had a rise before I’ve been knocked out of ketosis for a day or two.

Thanks. I’ll give that a go and see what happens

How many grams do you eat per day. Is 10g low for you in the morning because of insulin resistance or is that a large quantity. Not sure I understand. I have eggs which is only about 1g but only have around 20g per day. Sorry if I’m being thick! [emoji1]

I have been known to skip breakfast but recently I’ve been having two eggs fairly early.

Thanks. No tooth infection as far as I’m aware. Had a check up a couple of months ago, but I guess you never know what is brewing. Thanks

No. I only eat fresh real food. Good idea though. Thanks.

Yes you are right. They aren’t pro testing but may find the info helpful. I have to say the nurse is worse as she was telling me I need to eat 40-50% carbs and was horrified at the thought of low carb but was shocked at how low by BG was last time we spoke. Not up to date at all. Sigh.

No. I haven’t eaten anything close to a high carb meal for a year.

No but I also double checked with a different meter from time to time :(

I know. I was hoping someone might think of something I Hadn’t thought of. My doc has in the past said that it’s not that bad. Not sure they worry if it’s under 10!! I just wish I could speak with a forward thinking knowledgeable professional but I can’t. To be fair the doc is good but he...

I know. It just seems to have been such a long time. I’m panicking about every ache or pain in case it is caused my the constantly unfavourable BG.
