7.8 today...mind you it was not under normal circumstances as there were large amounts of red wine and vodka involved last night/early hours this morning ha ha! I didn't go to bed till about 3.30 oooopsie!!

I had the usual meals....usual amount of exercise.....same injection sites.....same doses.....arrrrghh......I am happy with the reading but I want to know what I did to get it lol. Who knows...only time will tell, hopefully tomorrow will follow suit.

This mornings reading.......... .....5.7!!!!!!!!!! I don't know how so it is probably just a fluke but I was in shock.

well I had no joy over the weekend so I will be phoning to make an appointment for my diabetic nurse and see what she has to say on the matter. I will report back as soon as I have any news or info. In the meantime it looks like its just a case of carrying on and trying to get it back to normal...

I personally drink quite a bit of coffee but always decaff because of the M.E, you should give it a go as it really is no different, I did not notice any difference when I swapped.

Is it anything to do with what you do after a few drinkies??? :lol: :wink:

That is awful, I can't believe any company could be that bad. I say defiantely follow the advice of these guys......go in guns blazing and kick their asses into shape!

Well this morning is no different....14.4!!!!

I have tried eating both a carb and non carb snack before bed....I even tried eating a couple of sweets before bed one night out of desperate curiosity. I think I am going to set a few alarms through the night and get a few snapshots of what is happening. I can then take these figures to my...

I have been so down for a while with this problem and was unsure as to the reason. I am being treated for M.E aswell as my diabetes and had just assumed that it must have been the M.E that was causing the problem. Like you have mentioned hanadr, doctors should inform you of this and check as it...

Its definately an interesting topic and I find the information varies so so much from one professional to another. I have so far been under the care of 3 different people for my diabetes, I have been told that my sugar levels should be between 4-10 when I was first diagnosed. After many years...

I have not thought about getting a continuous meter for night time, I will do my best to get one!! I have to be honest and say that I am completely unaware of insulin pumps, I have heard people mention them on here but that is as far as my knowledge goes. All I know is I just want to get this...

Now thats one thing that really gets on my nerves, there is really no need for anyone to be like that but for some reason they always seem to crop up. Like you say jay3109 we seem quite lucky on here for that!

I had never heard of Charcots until you just mentioned it and I am glad that you did. I recently had a problem where my big toe became very swolen and very red, my doctor was convinced it was an infection and I spent 3 weeks on antibiotics which did nothing. They did xray the foot and found...

My carb load is fairly low, Normal day is fruit or scrambled eggs for brekkie, soup + 1 slice bread for lunch, meat/fish and veg for dinner. snacks will be fruit, nuts, a little popcorn. I will only eat richer fruit for breakfast. later in the day I will stay with fairly plain fruit like apples...

Hello and welcome, likewise I do not know a great deal about diabetes and pregnancy other than my friends took a bit of extra care for that 9 months. That and she wasn't allowed to go full term apparently because of the diabetes. I'm sure there are plenty of people on here that can offer some...

Ok, I have been having trouble getting steady morning readings. I have tried all of the advice followed on here and really can't think what to do. If I go to bed with a nice normal BS of say 5.5 I wake up super high, might be going hypo so tried going to bed with a slightly higher sugar level...

You will have to let us know how you get on. I was in a mess when I found this site and was advised of the low carb so I made the change, I had nearly immediate sucess.

ROFL.....I so did exactly the same thing ha ha ha!

It is a worry lol, I don't think i'll be volunteering ha ha. I'll wait till lots and lots of people have had joy first, I'm quite happy with my needles thanks.
