Hi everyone, I'm back again.. the vicious circle I can't seem to stay out I was just thinking about when I was first diagnosed and it hit me how long ago that actually was. I've been extremely lucky to not have any damage that I am aware off ( I'm sure there will be something happening I'm...

Hi guys, so yet again I fell of the wagon completely. I have been for a substantial amount of time now.. Ashamed to say no control of diet, no testing and no medication taken as should. [emoji3525][emoji3525][emoji3525] had a few things going on, but in all honesty, it's just laziness and not...

Hi everyone, it's been a roller coaster few weeks for me. Ranging from gas leaks, carbon monoxide leaks, family issues and health diagnosis changes. I've been on and off the wagon more times than I can count! But I'm done with the excuses, and back on track from the morning. . Posting on here...

Can I ask how far out the hba1c estimate on my sugr is please? I'm wondering how far out/close it is as I have been looking at it for an estimate on my next bloods.

First time hitting the 5's! 5.1 on finger prick reading! Yey. Now to keep it there

Is carb flu a real thing? Or am I just ill?

Good morning everyone. I know it's possible this morning could be a false reading, but any reason why my finger prick could be showing at 2 points higher than my first, its barely 2 hrs ago and I haven't eaten anything or exercised..just school run by car. What else can cause a rise please? Is...

Hi, sorry, me again!..I have a quick question about gliclazide and finger prick testing. Yesterday I woke with 16.3 result. With a very low carb day and 2 lots of gliclazide, I went to bed on a 7.7. This morning I woke with a 10.3 and ending the day on on 8.5. Does that seem about right, or am I...

Hi [emoji112] everyone. The GP has doubled my dose of gliclazide today, so now 80mg twice a day. Quick question about timing please?... do I have to have a set amount of time between each dose or can I take one before dinner and one before tea? Thank you.

My hba1c has come back at 124. I'm due to see diabetic nurse in early Jan, also the GP wants to see me early Jan. This appointment was requested before the results were back so I'm not entirely sure what that appointment is for as usually the diabetic team deal with all my appointments. Anyhow...

Hi everyone, so..long story short, I've been diagnosed a few years now. I've been very ignorant about having type 2, I go through phases of being good ...and phases of not at all. I've never had good numbers though. It didn't effect me so I didn't bother, or so I thought, until last week...

Good morning everyone, this is my first post here. I've been t2d for coming up to 4 years. My hbac1 is usually between 49 and 61. I'm not medicated, I was given Metformin 2 years ago but stopped it due to excessive stomach pain. I have just had another hba1c and it's come back at 119.. I know...
