To be honest, it’s not the GP that I see, it’s just the nurse. I still don’t really know what I’m supposed to be looking out for.

I have updated my profile. I still don’t know if it was a hypo or if it was just a fake one.

I have updated my profile, I just didn’t know how to do it before. I just seem to get past being at 7 or 8 and I have cut carbs way down, I just can’t see where I’m going wrong!

That’s the thing though, I don’t actually know what a normal reading is. I didn’t know what a hypo was until I got home and saw what the level was and because I was told 4.9 and under is a hypo I just assumed that’s what it was.

No I’m not on metaformin, I’m on gliclazide. I can’t take metaformin. I didn’t know how else to treat it, I was a little freaked out if I’m honest. I didn’t know what to do for the best.

Yeah I am very new to all this, thanks for remembering me :) I have never been that low before so I was slightly panicking and I had no idea to sort it out, I thought I was gonna have to take more medication to sort myself out. It was quite daunting.

How do you safely treat a false hypo as I was shaking uncontrollably

Daily I take 120mg of gliclazide

The doc have put me on gliclazide as I can’t take metaformin.

hey So I was told by my doc that level reading of five and under puts you into a hypo, last night before bed my level was 4.1 but I felt fine, but I had some chocolate and when I checked in the morning it was back to 7.1. after work I was driving home I felt like my arms didn’t belong to me...

Thank you for your lovely message. I have good days and bad days were I have accepted it but the bad days like last week are horrible. I need to go to the opticians as my eye sight is very different to my glasses now and I’m scared it’s going to stay this way but I’m embarrassed about having...

Hey! Sorry I’ve just been a wee bit bummed out the past few days. I’m feeling really embarrassed about telling people I have diabetes . I just can’t deal with peoples sympathy looks and feel like they will be thinking thats a shame that she got so heavy that she got a disease from it, I’m just...

Ooh do you think the glasses with work? Will this pass soon? I was concerned it would last for months. Aww thank you, I hope it will last, don’t have the docs till next week so fingers crossed, Hope you had a good day

Thank you very much... I have been having some wobbles this week but they folks on here have been absolutely amazing . I wish they were siblings as they would probably get on better lol, They are 10 years in age apart.

I ran out of strips for my meter so I’ve not checked my levels since yesterday morning, and it’s come down by 7, so I’m assuming that’s what’s causing it, I still can’t see properly when I’m writing or reading but Im confident it will get better, thanks so much for the good advice.

im a bit worried this morning, I wear glasses and when I put them on everything was blurred, when I took them off I could see fine, I wear contacts during the day and this morning, and again everything is blurry when I’m wearing them, I’m a little bit scared that there is an issues with my eyes

Hey! Yeah I’m good thanks and how are you? I have been attempting the bread again, success this time, I didn’t use as much water and it seemed to have done the trick, fingers crossed it doesn’t fall flat during the night lol Aww that fine, thanks for letting me know, I will defo be avoiding...

Thank u! Aww ok cause I bought some Greek yoghurt that had honey in it but will just give it a miss

Yeah I got it, finally but I’m still not 100% sure what I’m doing with it yet.
