    Nausea

    I'm T2 on 2x1000mg Metformin daily. I eat very low carb. Over the last week I have felt sick pretty much all the time. (No, I'm not pregnant!) I'm eating regularly, but I'm not eating very much, - as I feel sick, and i tend to feel more sick after I've eaten. I'm checking my blood sugar but...

    Metformin in animals

    Don't know I'm afraid. - If they are tablets - like mine, rather than capsules, I don't see why not. - can sympathise with the problem though! We used to wrap the dogs tablets in ham, but he used to eat the ham and spit the tablet out. Then we tried moulding cheese around it but the tablet...

    First Christmas diagnosed as Type 2

    Sorry! Obviously didn't mean to post that four times! It's all really slow at the moment and it kept telling me that the connection had timed out. Can't work out how to delete the extras. Not liking this format! :( Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    First Christmas diagnosed as Type 2

    My first Christmas too, and my next hba1c is in early January so no escape. :( I'm trying to focus on the things I can eat rather than the things I can't but as the slightest bit of carbohydrate sends my BG soaring, my options are limited. I'm starting to feel a bit sorry for myself. :( :( I...

    Haloween Pumpkin

    Shzz, really good pumpkin! Well done! Didn't get many this year, just two groups of the neighbours kids. Went for chocolate coated dried fruit and toffee apples, then got rid of the left overs when some private pupils came to the house next day. Less temptation that way! Will be checking out...

    hba1c

    To be honest, I'm getting more information from the odd conversation with a friend who's son was recently diagnosed T1, than I do from my doctor or DN. I was really disappointed with my first Hba1c. It wasn't what I was expecting. My day time readings I keep under control by eating next to no...

    Diabetic nonsense

    Carmina, the situation with your colleague sounds really scary. - We all know that the feeling you get when your BG is too high is very similar to the one for too low. It's really difficult to tell the difference, especially at the beginning. :( Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    Would coffee raise blood sugar like food?

    Umm, yes. Not eating will raise your blood sugar pretty effectively. - once out shopping with friends, (yes I know, I was having a girly moment!) we went past lunch and it was half three before any of us noticed the time. The only reason anyone clocked that was because I suddenly started...

    does anyone else get moody with diabetes?

    Yep. I'm afraid I'm pretty well known for it. Although, keeping my blood sugar stable seems to have fixed that problem. Looking back, it really makes me wonder how long I actually was diabetic pre diagnosis. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

    A question of calves
