Amen. I find stress raises bgl's rapidly. I've had days where the levels have jumped from 9 to 15 over an hour.

8.7, up a bit on normal.

You should test first thing in the morning, prior to breakfast, 2 hours after, and so forth for each meal of the day. As for injections, you will become accustomed to the process over time. Try to pinch the skin to reduce sensation. The results should range between 4.7 to 7.8 on average. Over...

Karma is the snake that bites its own tail.

5.2 is a good reading. Don't stress over that. Your control appears to be good. Keep up with the good behaviour and enjoy your life. Diabetes is not a prison sentence. You can rise above it, but understand it will bring you down if you ignore it. Keep your knowledge updated and manage the...

Chances are the diet is stressing the body and provoking a release of glucose from the liver. BGL's around 7 are not too bad, so don't stress out. You are doing well considering you are pre diabetic. Keep a close eye on your levels and inform your GP of any erratic movements in your levels.

All good. Thank you for yor concerns @Snapsy. Now I see how I look when I am out of the zone. Not a pretty picture. No. I have this person for quite some time and she has learned to read the physical symptoms. I have learned to read her symptoms. It is a good relationship.

Strange, I've dropped back down to 3.7??

Thank you, I'll keep that in mind.

I hear a lot about fat now being touted as a good part of a diet. Yet, if I ingest a large amount I can become nauseous and lethargic.
