PS still have some brain fog sadly but that happens when I get the cursed tonsillitis,which normally takes about 9-10 days to go :(

Hi NicoleC1971, Sorry if I came across wrongly I certainly didn't mean to imply you were wrong. Initially I thought as son and husband had same symptoms as I did/have that it was just this horrid summer flu going around Doncaster, but as it turns out they are not as shakey and woozy as me. But...

Hi ChloeFr, Welcome to the forum. I am type 2 but yes it can be scary and no you are not alone. ;)

Hi NicoleC1971, No I don't think its 'Keto Flu' simply because husband who is not diabetic has had the same thing as me for the same amount of time, and I recognise tonsilitis as I get it every single year. Also our son had this summer flu last week so think we picked it up from looking after...

Yes Antje77, I take something called Canagliflozin 300mg 1 per day. This is what brought me here as the DN wants me to add another tablet (unknown) and maybe an injectable again unknown. Because that 3 monthly blood test (can't think of name) isn't coming down fast enough. Hence me finding this...

I've had a few days ill, tonsilitis with a dose of summer flu and really haven't been able to eat at all excepts for a few mouths full of yogurt, drinking a lot of water though and sleeping a lot. My BG was just dropping to lows I have never seen before, down as low as 4.0 to 4.3 which made me...

Hello Razel, Welcome to the forum and I see you have been given lots of good advice already. Your post took me back a few years to my dad, he too was diabetic and was having similar events, mum got to the very end of her tether and I urged her to talk to their GP. I don't intend to frighten you...

Thank you Pip, I have seen Dawn Phenomenon mentioned on the forum but didn't know what it was. I really didn't know the time of day could make a difference. I shall try testing earlier and again later to see if it affects me. So thanks again Pip x

5.5 today at 5.30am then 5.4 at 10.05am But have a a bad dose of summer flu and tonsilitis so has been in the 4s whilst not eating.

Hi Mossy28, Welcome to the forum I'm sure you'll find a warm welcome from all and learn a lot of stuff about diabetes. One of the main things I've learned here in the past few weeks is never turn your back on it, it will turn and bite you on the b u t t! I am trying the low carb diet which is...

Does it make much difference if you test later Pip? Asking as I'm very poor at getting to sleep until well into the early hours (maybe 3-4am) so tend to then wake up close to midday. No I don't eat after about 11pm just have sips of water but DN says thats still fasting..... not sure why I still...

Hi Radicalcartoons, Yep feel the same way as you. Fed up with adding more tablets every year, shake me and I rattle lol Welcome to the forum I think you'll find many like minded people here :)

Yesterday was 6.0 today 7.0 Not sure why it's gone up a tad but have woke up with very sore throat! Maybe using throat spray alters it a little:confused: Oh well! Still better than double figures ;)

5.7 today, it's so nice waking up in the 5's and not 12+ range :happy: Have a great weekend everyone x

Thank you so much Ryhia, I really do appreciate these bread and buns recipes. I intend to try the Giancarlo Caldesi's sesame seed buns today as I have all the ingredients listed but will have to get some wheat gluten and yeast to try the bread. Did a google search for the Keto King Bread and not...

Does anyone have a recipe for low carb bread that uses less than 12 large eggs? So far I've tried baking 2 different lots both having huge amount of eggs (1 - 12 large eggs other 10 large eggs), and both tasted like over thick omelets. Don't get me wrong, I love omelets but not 4+ inch thick...

Definitely not alone WendyAF, if you need something to hold onto then this forum is a good place to start ;) Welcome :)

Ditto! I too miss some of my old foods, never did eat much potato, just small amounts when I did but I certainly miss Pasta and rice big time. But a month in on a Low Carb diet and I'm finding it easier by the day especially as now my body loves Low Carb and other medical conditions are...

5.6 today pleased to say :)

Hi James, welcome to the forum :)
