    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    Do you really mean that @Bubbsie , after the ‘Yes @timgil , you have diabetes’ there’ll be 9 minutes left for duff advice, an overdose of NICE guided misinformation and a telling off for letting it happen. Seriously I hope it’s a good productive well advised meeting with the doctor though the...

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    So 11.4 at 9am after a 7 hour drive back from The Lakes to Kent. I had a KFC at 9pm carefully picked off the crusts from the chicken, sadly you lose most of the skin and fat too [emoji25] But .... I did eat a little half corn on the cob too. Mad you might say, but I thought it was one of those...

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    Hi @weemer, welcome to the forum and welcome to that select group that you don’t want to be in, those with poorer skills at BG control! I see you’ve started a thread and great advice is pouring in, please keep us posted with your progress. Good luck and I trust you’ll soon abandon my group and...

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    Nice one Debs, I love your little essays. I go on about carbs to other T2s and end feeling like I’m an odd ball. (Probably rightly so) Also it’s obvious I’m wrong because I’m professing to know more than doctors, what sort of idiot would do that just because of a few months experience of an...

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    I agree completely, trust the numbers, they’re all in the ok zone in the ballpark whether they’re ‘great ok’ or ‘not too bad ok’ is a bit of a detail. It’s when we chase the impossible (for our body) that we go too far and can easily end up doing more harm than good. I think every silver lining...

    Really good results Ian, you deserve them. You grumble a bit [emoji6] but get on with it and look after yourself well virtually every day battling through regardless. You’re a star [emoji122][emoji122][emoji122]

    Regular moderate exercise log

    Billy Bunter frame ..... there’s an imposter posing for your avatar Ian [emoji6] Your 6.8k for yesterday puts my 2.9k to shame! Do I get points for 6 hours driving?

    C peptide results

    I’ve just read your other threads. It must be so very frustrating that nobody is listening. With that low carb intake you’d expect lower numbers so that must be frustrating too

    C peptide results

    But you have C peptide at levels that would be unlikely if you didn’t produce insulin, that coupled with your high BG suggests you’re T2

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    Just seen the Endocrinologist and he’s thrown up the ‘am I T1’ question so.... just had about 20g of carbs in orange juice cos he wants to tease my system and am waiting to have blood tests for: B12, Ferretin, c peptide, Hba1c (which he said they might not let him do) GAD 65, IAAZ, zinc...

    Type 2 Stopping Insulin Injections?

    Well done, that’s good progress. I wouldn’t get too hung up on sugar levels if they’re within 1 of where you want them and wayyyy below where they were. The vagaries of your body, dawn phenomenon, differing test results, it’s averages that matter.

    What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

    A naughty 8.5 this morning but not as naughty as the recent 9s My average on the libre has dropped from the 8s to 7.4 which I reckon would give me a high 40s Hba1c . So I’ll probably live. Anyway, Holidays are comin’
