    Thanks Rhubarb, I think I'm anti KFC now lol. I certainly don't want another day like today or to start on the health anxiety road again. Will take the advice from here and take step back, reassess my diet and not to panic, I will start over again tomorrow and hope I have a better day. Thank you.

    Thank you all. I thought I had done very well since my diagnosis 2 weeks ago. My Hba1c has come down from 7.8 to 6.2. The app I'm using "my sugar" has been 80% in the green with the odd hyper here and there. Then today comes along and it has been terrible. My highest 13.9 and lowest 4.3. My...

    Thanks, I was told low carb high fiber maybe I heard wrong. I've only been on metformin for 3 days. Take one in morning with food. My low BG concerns me in case I go into a diabetes coma because my count gets very low when sleeping.

    I would appreciate lessons on low carb because it looks like I have been doing this all wrong. I do try to avoid fast foods and takeaways but unfortunately due to demands in the work place I very rarely get to have a proper break and fast food is usually more convenient and easier, to be honest...

    Bg Today Not Good

    Hi All, I have just tested again and I am now 13.9. From reading your replies I am beginning to think I may be a bit wet behind the ears with this type 2 diabetes. I did not see any harm in eating KFC, I could understand with the fries due to the carbs or am I looking at all this wrong? I have...
