Hi Mahorela, I am new to all this too, hit me out of the blue or so I thought. I have a hyperthyroid condition and I have now managed to do a bit more research on this linked with RH. People who have hyperthyroidism basically burn everything including carbs up very, very quickly. On OGTT it...

I have experienced the same miracle turn around and feel so much better for it. Bloods are regularly in the high 5s so feeling much better than I have done in a very, very long time. My house is like a new pin too!

Hi Carol, I am RH not diabetic.

Hi Kaz, I have been following Noshers advice to the letter and are now in my second day of managing to achieve mid to high 5s all day and I feel good on it. I was brave last night, tested my blood before bed (5.7) and trusted that I wouldnt go Hypo - but I did keep a biscuit by my bed in case...

Thanks for all your help .... I am having a much better day today keeping my bloods within the mid 5s all day. Hope all is well with you.

Thanks bigboi, I am not sure tbh ...very new to all this and only taken this test to date, although I was at 6.1 in the morning two weeks ago after fasting from 6 pm the night before and checked by my GP so I guess I must be. I normally feel OK in the mornings - thank you for your help.

Thanks bigboi and Linagirl I have had a piece of ham and two babybel cheeses - do you think that should do it? thanks

Hello ... me ... again! Just got my first blood glucose monitoring machine and took a test 4 hours after eating my evening meal and got a reading of 4.4. Can anyone tell me if they think this is low? I have a fear of a overnight hypo! Thanks

Thanks everyone for your help and an interesting debate. I have bought myself a bottle of Coke Zero and really enjoyed a small glass with my tea, a nice treat after days of water. I will see how it goes.

Thanks for the tips nosher8355 - definitely something I wouldnt have thought of!

Hello Nosher8355 - thanks for your invaluable advice as always, I am so glad to have discovered this forum and you! That is fab news and has made my day - small things hey! I will keep in mind the aspartame as a friend had very bad poisoning from it but it gives me an alternative to alcohol...

Thanks Kaz

Thanks Totto and nosher ...Feeling much more positive tonight looking forward to my cheese and mushroom omelette without fear!

Thanks Totto I just got round to watching the video and think I have found my basic error .... I have been eating fruit ... plums, oranges .... emptying my new fruit bow into a bin as we speak!

Thanks, I will have a look at that one. Im not having a good day today feeling like I am going hypo and not being able to get my head around the diet. I read something is OK and low carb on one site and then not on another, it is driving me crazy. Is there just one really good place I should...

Maybe a silly question .... I am now getting much better versed after some research re low carb/low GI foods ... however I dont know what to drink. I am OK day to day with mainly water or soda water but what do you all drink for an occassional safe treat? I am at a party on Sat and although I...

Thank you, I have already started low carb, low GI from the advice on here and feel better already, but yes will certainly look at the Gluten Free and dairy too - thanks for recommending the additional tests too - I will ask for them to be done

T Thank you - I got the first book suggested so will read this one next, really appreciate your help.
