Hello :) what makes you go into a panic? Is it the fact of having to take your novorapid before your meal quick enough or something like that? How do you mean, sorry if I missed it in your first post

Thankyou for the encouraging words. Like all of us we have to just get on with it as it where. It's gotten easier to deal with after learning new techniques, how my body works best and how to control properly. I feel a lot better now than I used to. Cheers, hope you're doing well.

Same for me yesterday, over the course of 4 hours fasting i injected 14 units of novorapid correction and my sugar eventually returned to 5mmol/L this morning at 5am, its pathetic...

Exactly Denise. People are so narrow minded and uneducated on it. I feel for the type 2 diabetics they get so much bull.

Im type 1 but... I notice higher blood sugars on colder days and I assume my body is trying to conserve glucose or my body releases more sometimes due to it being cold and using more energy when trying to stay warm... coupled with the constant batterings of cold bugs etc I would say this is why...

Having checked the ingredients, you're right, as that is the only double cream I have heard of or ever used in my life, it was the reason I gave my suggestion... thanks for the heads up

Your blood sugars don't indicate why there are ketones. That seems strange to me, did you have a bout of high blood sugars before your current reading? I had ketones once when I had diarrhea... but my ketones had made it into my urine. My sugars were initially high, and I had ketones and had to...

Well whichever cream, was just a suggestion. He's type 1 so he can adjust for the carbs if he wanted too. I can't really comment on the vegetable oils part as many people here eat high fatty foods, including me occasionally.

Thats absolutely amazing what an improvement! Well done you!

Use Elmea double cream in your cereal instead of milk, its same carbs as milk but you'll gain more weight using it.

I hate insulin sometimes, my sugar levels where 10 before my meal so I took 2 units novorapid Then came teatime, I had 7 units with my meal, which was actually more than I should have had for that meal.. Checked just again after 2 hours... its 12.6, like WHAT!, didnt the first 2 units do jack...

Imagine being drunk with them both and asking Ronald to tell Roland to pass you something

Do you mean, that there is 1.25 grams of sugar in 1 litre of blood? 4 grams of sugar in 5 litres of blood? (All the blood in the body) Which is physically like if you took all that out it would be a teaspoon of sugar I guess thats assuming your a healthy non-diabetic Source...

Definetely that really infuriates me, family have said it to me in the past and I just totally zone out, I can eat whatever the hell I want... but Ill suffer for it :rolleyes:

3.3 and 11.5 decided to rear their ugly heads after a long day of sugars which didn't leave 5-6mmol/L fasting..

Well I can only wish you get better results with your blood sugar readings! And your bodies insulin resistance buggers off for a while. I would say you've made the right choice eating brekky under those circumstances. Have a wonderful day :)

That is strangerooney, that must be the most annoying thing, the inconsistency in doing something and the results are not what we want... does the sugar eventually go back down? And how long after... At those times your body might be fighting off some bug or have a cold coming on, but in...

It still scares me after being diagnosed for 6 years, ive had em, I hate the sleep deprivation from having one in the middle of the night! Awful things! Hope youre doing ok
