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

    I will go forth with the quest to make stranger smile, however, for armour, I will carry a copy of this thread with me for protection, in case the stranger in question decides to slap me - one cannot be too careful these days!:)

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

    Thank you all for your kind words, they are much appreciated. I know it is still a long road to travel to my destination of Remission, and I am still finding my way around the satnav of T2, so getting to there will have the occasional wrong turn, hold ups and diversions. However, being on...

    I suppose they must have a tantrum once in a while, just to show they are independent. I am sure they will make up soon :D

    Some strange mirroring going on, the meters are in collusion, and soon they will dominate our waking moments, then before we know it they will take over the world I tell you.

    I would blame it on the Australian wine, I mean, Australia is around 9 hours ahead of us, so stands to reason, your numbers are not in line with UK time .... :)

    Good morning to all who inhabit this small corner of interweb. Today, the sacrificial finger to Lady Vampira did tell of 6.2 at 0645. She did not foretell when the levels will fall. May you all have a happy and stress free Sunday

    Is Teetu, the God of T2 diabetes playing jokes upon his worshipers this past week. Many have noticed a rise in bg levels in the morning bloodletting, yet eat something sinful, and worryabouttheimpending rise in bg, only to breathe a sigh of relief as bg is lower than the morning result. Or is...

    Good morning to everyone out there in the land of Diabetes. This morning, at 6.20, Lady Vampira tasted my blood and told me of a miniscule improvement, as it is now 6.1. Not much, but will take anything moving towards 5's. Off to walk my dogs now, wishing you all the very best and hope you...

    Asked to decide what meds should I take next...

    Lorraine, start on a LCHF diet slowly, rather than dive in the deep end first time. Cut out or down on one thing, then progress one day at a time before moving onto the next food to cut out, not forgetting to increase the protein. I have elected to do the LCHF diet, and made the slow change...

    Britain's Fat Fight

    But therein lies the problem, what is healthier stuff. What is good for one is not good for another, even for those whose health is good, it is confusing, some diets work for some, but not for others, and then comes along the next latest fad turning it on its head.

    A few questions from a newbie

    Hi, do not loose confidence over one crass remark. I appreciate how it can make you feel, and working in a hospital, should mean he would understand a medical condition can weigh on peoples mind, and that you were doing something positive to understand your situation, get to grips with it and...
