Hi ! I'm Peter and type2 on pills and a healthy diat. I had been living for many years of ill health until I was diagnosed as Type2. I now have a much better life controled by diat. I blame a lazy doctor for not picking it up sooner. Thirst, low body fat, wet sheets at night was the norm for me...

I am most thankful to the MANY of the unknown for the information one can gleen to be more informed on my diabetes. Type 2 for almost ten years with a far better grip on diet and a better understanding of better choices. The worst thing is the thought of making this condition worse because this...

Type 2 since 2012. Hi ! Good question and you should get many answers. I miss Chocolate and a sweet after dinner, I have a boring diet which is suposed to reverse my diabetes but it's not working as quick as I hope it would, so I battle on being a good boy.

Many thanks, I did not know and I shall pass this on. Type 2 and all those blister packs just throw it out to land fill, now I know better.

You in a good place here, plenty of information and advice. Diabetes can be controled but it is a learning curve and after 8 years I can still learn something new. Take time to ask questions and read, the many people are all in the same boat fron the first day they were told to the years after...

Hi and thanks for posting this I have followed all the comments as this has happened to me a couple of days ago, felling sleepy yet numbers are right, took a chance and had a bit of chocolate and soo I was back to normal. It seems to me that my BG may have dropped too quick after...

You're right, I'm tested every 90 days.

Th is This refers to the overall effect of a complete change to life style and diet, now just one metformin with evening meal.

Hi to Choosy. There is a lot of good advice here and a BG meter is a good guide to help control your diet and I only bought one 6 months after being diagnose as the Nurse said I don't need one. Just to say it took six months for the effect of the change in diet to take effect on me.

Welcome Onwunyirigbo There are many answers here and they all agree Low Carb and exercise, for me it's walking, as for meter readings they are a guide to what's going on right at that moment so after a walk my BG level reads high so I don't test for at least an hour. The meter is a tool for me...

oops that should be {cramp } made me laugh though.

I thought I was being naughty but I do treat myself now and again when I've had a full on day and I can get away with it. So I agree spoil yourself if you can.

I have gone through the many comments here and although my nurse has said the same thing as most comments how would I know if I was OK to drive, it might be that I'm just tired. I drive from Surrey to Wiltshire and Devon to visit Family. There is advice at DVLA regarding diabetes, I need to know...

Please speak to somebody Alex_B Life is so precious yet soooo short. I lost my wife after treatment for cancer at just 49 and then with all the stress of that after a visit to the Doctor when I was getting one cold after another in a row, a full M.O.T they tell me I was border line diabetes so...

Sounds like you had a miss read. This weekend I've had silly numbers and it's all down to the hot weather. Always worth a retest wouldn't expect a rise from 2.1 to 13.5 in five minutes but then I don't dare touch Lucazade.

Hooray Hooray been normal all day. Blast the hot weather !
