I’d wondered if this day would come and it seems it has. If I ignore taste buds that seem “off” (May or may not be down to one/several/all of the seven different meds I take) I realised today that food has simply lost its allure. Salad I had for lunch went, partially eaten, into the bin. Came...

In my view its all down to diet. I have been on Metformin for years and any changes in my HbA1c have been down to what I have eaten over a period of time rather than the drug. That has been the constant in my life whilst my diet has varied according to mood and err...common sense being applied...

4.2 I’ll take that.

As someone diagnosed with anxiety disorder, Dysthymia, is Autistic and has suicidal ideation, yes I would certainly say stress plays a huge role in my readings. I can actually feel the tension leading to a higher result so have to try, as hard as I can, to stay totally calm leading up and...

Thank you but I am fine. It was a bit of @ struggle to fill the strip- my blood is very reluctant at times..but it’s 5.1 this morning.

It’s been two days. I am fine. This morning I was 5.1. And that’s after the shocking news that my stepson and daughter in law have been in a very serious car accident overnight.

It’s about understanding and most don’t. It’s also my inability to articulate what I need, because I don’t know.

Ah, talking. Been to that well on so many occasions. Nobody really listens and because there are no Autism trained counsellors around here those I sorak to don’t get me. I will talk to my doctor..though it’s not one I’ve seen before, when I go in on the 11th for my medication review.

Absolutely. We try and eat at about the same time each day. My better half’s spontaneous decisions to change her eating times are very disconcerting!.

I am not on Gliclazide.
