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

    Aggghhhg I hope its not spiking me, as I've been drinking gallons of the stuff. I'm out at the moment, but will look later. I haven't noticed adverse effects from drinking the squash previously, but will keep a close eye on it now. Ty for keeping me informed.

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

    Have to say, I'm noticing the later I eat my last meal of the day, the higher my BG readings are the following morning and it seems to take longer for BG readings to fall too. I awoke at 5am to 13.7mmol BG after a late evening meal and its taken a further 6 hours, from 5am. for readings to...

    Sore feet

    Rolypoly 58........ Very painful feet I have, ranging from burningfpain, to badly bruised feeling. Also my left foot, feels like I have a stone in my shoe when putting weight on my feet. Things get so bad it keeps me awake at night with pain, even with raised legs. I've had several other...

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

    Late night meal involving pasta gave me a waking BG reading of 13.7mmol @ 5am. Still running at BG reading of 11.8mmol @ 8.15am. Must strike pasta completely from my diet and try to finish eating earlier in the evening. Going to fast today to make up for it. Will keep hydrated with water and no...

    Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

    Good morning everybody. Hope you are all well.. BG 13.7 mmol on waking @ 5am. Still running at 11.8 mmol @ 8.30a.m. Not the reading I'd hoped for, but did have a late meal with pasta involved last night. Must strike pasta completely off the diet.

    Good morning 7.9mmol BG at 7.45am. Happy seeing the reading below 8, even if it only just made it. Glad I left the bag of crisps in the cupboard. Best thoughts to everybody & hope your readings give you positivity.

    Best of luck scan results are favourable. Sending best wishes for you. Good morning all..... 7.4 mmol Blood Glucose this morning @4.15am. Happy days...... I consider any reading below 8mmol to be a triumph, considering readings were in 20's, or high teens, just a couple of weeks ago. Smiles...

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

    Good morning all. 8.7 on waking early after a restless night @ 3.15am.and running 10.7 now. Happy with reading, considering I hardly slept any, but I'm sure I could get readings lower with more effort..... penguin mum, that's a five reading in my book, well done. Aylalake in the 6s is still...

    It would appear to me that the accuracy of the prick test is spot on perfect and Doctor advising you has passed. Doctor is a Prick for sure.

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

    Thx for the vote of confidence aylalake. It all comes down to what rubbish I put in my mouth really. I am still learning, but am aware normal bread, pastries, pasta, cereal and other obvious high carb, or high sugar food, sends my Blood Glucose reading into the 20s mmol and takes time to...

    Staggered and saddened by this information!

    The writers of that advertisement are incredibly stupid. I'm a newcomer to this, but have already discovered to my horror, that I cannot eat breakfast cereal, or bread, without Blood Sugar levels rising to unsafe levels. Can eat unsweetened yoghurt, but without the fruit that the writer wants...

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

    Thx for the reply and advice/ explanation. Forgot to mention the headaches . Spent yesterday taking paracetamol, which are fantastic at alleviating headache for ne. Having said all that, it was still my own fault that readings were much higher today, as my dinner last night whilst being fine...

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

    After 3 cracking days, then I throw in a stinky 10.2 this morning. Have taken my last steroids, to help combat ulcerated legs and vasculitis. So now hopefully i can lose some fat from my girth and get some weight off my aching feet. Very dry mouth, stuffy nose and feeling a bit under the...
