    Type1. Lack of understanding from Employers

    I'm in USA so we have different rules here but I feel for you-it is difficult to deal with diabetes appointments and working as well-please do not let it get you down. You are worth taking care of.

    Type 1s: Advice wanted!

    Hi @lcarter I have Type 2 but am on insulin and metformin now. I was borderline diabetic for over 40 years. I have similar eating patterns and problems which I am still struggling with but my glucose control is much better than it has been in the past. I have found through testing my blood...

    Glucose in my Urine

    Chri Christmas is a hard time to start. Most of us allow ourselves a few extra carbs at Christmas to enjoy time with our families. As said above though Turkey is good for you, salad is great. Non starchy vegetables, eggs, and cheese are all good. I personally have problems with cookies and...

    First day blood glucose testing

    @Stuart7152 Plan sounds good to me. I just want to mention that it is possible to get low blood glucose while taking metformin and reducing your carbohydrate intake-especially when you reduce the intake suddenly. A low is defined as anything under 4.0 and lows in the low 3's and below can be...

    Glucose in my Urine

    I agree with all the above posters and just want to add that it is normal for someone with Type 2 Diabetes to have high blood sugars at 1 and 2 hours after eating. That is pretty much the definition of Diabetes-our bodies do not deal well with the carbohydrates in the food we eat and we get high...

    First day blood glucose testing

    I think you are on the right path by testing and finding out what the foods you eat are actually doing to your blood glucose. 95 carbs in one meal is a lot by anyone's standards. 60 carbs per meal is the most I have ever seen advised even by standard diabetic diets and that would be for a large...

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

    7.4 or 134, I was worried it would be higher than that-I had a very stressful day yesterday (and ate too much).
