Hey first thing to do is relax. I have read copious amounts of information and it states that All Complications occur some degree over 7.5. Some complications need to actually exceed 8 and others such as finger problems need to go up to above 12. All these need a long time over this number...

I would prefer the NHS to stop funding these drug companies to have their executives on big wages. Why cant the NHS not command a massive discount with Abbot for these Libre? I am a computer programmer and I would say theres probably like £5-£10 of components in one of those meters

Hey, Im 29 and have T2D for 9 months now I know its hard and its difficult but perhaps if I met some people here who we could encourage one another and just be general friends would be awesome. I am a computer programmer by trade so its not a shock that T2D would come to me but I am sad by it...

Hey Folks, Although this is not an HBA1C result I did get other tests. Calcium, Phosphate, B12 and Foliate == Normal CBC == Normal Cholestorol == 3.44 LDL == 1.1 Ferritin == Normal 67 I was (Iron) == 6 Level and 7.1 Saturation Now (Iron) == Normal! I was anxious after reading about kidney...

Or you could convice your doctor to give you a second drug just so that it ticks the NHS Box

I'm not sure about that I'm a worrier and like I said if I pushed 48 to 55 in 6 months because I deliberately ate sugar I can't be wrong saying the overall average would be up?

Hi Folks, My HBA1C was 55 in March and to be honest I kind of brought it on myself when the Doctor told me it was 48/46 I thought to call his bluff that I was diabetic so I consumed lots and lots of sugary foods and drinks for a period of about 6 months between the first HBA1C and the second...

Being from Northern Ireland its nice to goto the Mainland on a holiday and that bit of water between the UK and Us makes it feel like a real holiday away from home

Hi all I posted about this before yesterday I had strawberries and chocolate in a cup from a chocolate fountain at a fair event I was at yesterday My 1.5 hour was 5.3 from 4.8 resting what the heck I've notced so breads shoot like a rocket but chocolate stays relatively constant could it be...

This may sound silly but given exercise is stimulation would one of those vibrating boards or the pads for the tummy u use overnight not also cause your carbs to reduce

I thought surgery cures T2 in most people?

I do believe personally though that there will be a Cure like look how close T1 is Bio Pancreas Pump Pancreas Transplant Islet Transplant Longer Acting Insulin And most of those have only reliably been available since 2005+ Now with Glucose Monitoring where we no longer need to use blood or a...

I hear you I am doing the same being 28 I was freaked out I would be dead by 50 until I realised there are T1's living into their 60's and when u realise their situation is a whole lot worse than T2 I realise that I can learn to live with my T2. Lets be honest our bodies for the most part...

True the BBC will stick strong and hard to NHS guidelines as they would be liable for anything else.

Hey Folks, This looks promising, They are currently in Clinical Trials in the US so heres hoping this will be one of many cures. Interestingly lots of research is being done in diabetes because its such a problem now that even putting a cure at a high price point or a recurring pill it has...

Im thinking of going with a 3rd to get a consensus as 4.2 and 6.2 is a wide gap and if one reads a little low and the other HIGH then what should I expect 5.2?

I knew people said it reads higher but by 2 mmol is a massive amount. If you were a Type 2 using this you could end up starving yourself to get yourself below 5 (I have) when infact your actually pushing yourself towards the 3's on a normal meter.

Hi Folks, Ive have been using CodeFree for a while now and Ive been getting readings in the 5s to 6s I then decided to buy the AccuChek Avia and run the tests at the same time. So far the AccuChek seems more stable with blood sugars being 0.1 0.2 different across several tests / fingers Where...

I eat some bad carbs but I always walk it off for an hr afterwards and my average is 4.5
