I can have 3 blackberries or 3 raspberries or 3 strawberries which don't spike me everything else is off the list. As mentioned above Testing is the only way to find out for sure.

Nicely done. :)

Fantastic result @wolfie53, congratulations on all your hard work. :)

Hello and welcome to the Forum. :) Coming up for my 1 year anniversary of being diagnosed, and finding this Forum has been the best thing associated with this disease.

Congratulations, well done. :)

Thanks just my high cholesterol and blood pressure and I'll be sorted :rolleyes:

Many thanks all, I know it's a vast improvement on my initial diagnosis it's just my Heart consultant isn't bothered what my doctors says, my doctor isn't bothered what my diabetic Nurse says and they all aren't bothered what I say....:D

Great news, well done you. :)

Gone up to 5.5% or 37 mmol/mol. My BP Tablets and Statins probably had something to do with that result. :banghead: Testing once a day now since NHS withdrew my prescription for test strips and lancets.

Unfortunately they're getting their info from the NHS guidelines

More learned people than I will respond, but for what it's worth: 1. Your body your decision. 2. I would purchase a meter and strips. 3. Keep a food diary record all meals, snacks and drinks. 4. Test before and after each meal, you'll know then what spikes you. Then you can "Eat to your meter"...

Congratulations on all your hard work. :)

Eat, or in this case drink to your meter. I tested all varieties of milk and soya light was the best for me, no spike at all so that's my go to for a cup of tea. Double cream in my coffee though.

Great results so far, fingers crossed for the job front too. :)

5.2 this chilly morning. :)

Mine rose, I informed the Dr. Told her that I was stopping them due to the BS levels and side effects. My body, my decision. Having taken pro-active steps in regards diet, weigh tloss and diabetes control she had to listen to my reasoning and although not ageing with it has had to go along...

Never apologise, your questions and the corresponding answers just might assist someone too scared to post themselves.

Everybody's results will vary, I have my next HbA1C test in Feb, this will incorporate the Festive period so I'll be interested in the outcome. As long as the tests back up what I know I've been eating, I'll be happy.

Nicely done. :)

Great results, congratulations on all your hard work.
