Many thanks

It's less than half of what it originally was, I've tried time and again but get so sick and out of it mentally. Local quack isn't interested in helping, and I'm with the best our area has to offer in the wonders of our NHS, so no help there. I get wound up by these forum things, seem targeted...

Afraid I've not really taken it as seriously as I should, more a "limit it to 2 biscuits with my cuppa" person.

Been stuck with this for years unfortunately - never mentally got to grips with it. Got this week off so it looks like I'm going to be enjoying a sugar crash

Hi been waking up with extreme dull pain in the lower right hand side of abdomen every morning, fatigue all day, sugars about 8 - 8.5 - that's good for me any lower and I can't function at all. High blood pressure and non-alcoholic fatty liver for a couple of years. This has been getting worse...

I don't feel human if it gets below 8. Thought I was doing ok, suppose I best read up on all this again.....

Thanks - not in a good place with it all right now. Thought I was doing fine and collapsing last week has left me a bit screwed up and p*ssd off

Back in the angry stage again; had this **** under control for years then crashed out last week with a 680 reading and a day being pumped full of insulin. Three million pills which make me feel like **** handed over and none the wiser as to why things changed

That NHS diet advice page is a great example of how confusing and pointless most of the advice tabs are. The whole thing is just one contradiction after another. If the NHS advice is as useless as suggested - state that clearly or shut up. Mudding the water helps no one

Can anyone point me towards some simple advice on managing Type 2? I remember coming on here before and once again I'm lost on this site. The drop downs don't really seem to tell you anything useful and the forums are depressingly "we're in this part of the death club" with a random collection...

What's normal - I've been told 4-6; 5-8; & 7-10 (qualified with not harmful) by different doctors. Sorry if I sound ****** off but I am. Had years of this now and only ever suffer when following the "experts" advice. After 5 years of misdiagnosis over my rotten chest I've no faith in any of...

Categorically told by my GP NOT to do my own tests. "This isn't how we manage these things; you'll damage the nerve endings in your fingers" Floating around 8 I feel great anything lower or higher - ****** Work long hours in a high stress job - that has more effect on sugars then any diet...

Exact same thing they did to me; rotten chest infection - So naturally 4 tests for diabetes? 3 of which were negative; the last positive and a month later its a bag of meds. Feel 100 times worse on medication but thats okay apparently? Never been as sick as when I've been on the meds; its...

Never had a single symptom until put on medication. GP tested and tested and tested until they got a "positive" result after I had chest infection problems. Not at all convinced that this explosion of type 2 is that and not some as yet unidentified virus or something. Was taken off the...
