    Hi

    Hi nosher Nice to hear from you. Hope you are well. My energy levels are so much better, I know when I've eaten what I shouldn't have. I have cut out normal 'spuds' and replaced with sweet potatoes. The day I wrote the above, I spiked at 9, after 1/2 hour I only checked my sugars as I...

    Hi

    A question about RH.. When you have a 'spike' in Bg what does it go up to? I'm doing well on my low carb/no carb diet, losing weight and not having drastic ups and downs, I'm learning the triggers, just wondered what a ' high spike' is for people? [emoji848] Best wishes [emoji2]

    Hi Kaz I didn't actually have much rice.. I was at work so I did do activity after, but nothing strenuous, I have a physical job so was on the go. Thanks for your reply.. I spend my time lately just working out what I can eat, make homemade lunches, and my bm is still unstable. I will...

    Nosher! I thought I'd leave it as long as possible before I revealed what I did for a living!! It's a difficult one isn't it, it seems the reverse of everything I've been trained to deal with, I'd treat a person below bm of 4... However, my average bm is 3.6.. So I can't keep giving myself...

    Hi nosher and Brunneria Thanks for replying and the advice. I hardly eat at meal times, I'm mindful of the amount. I've eaten brown rice everyday this week with small Apple as snack, breakfast of the eggs does me well to mid morning.. Eating snacks through out the day, avoiding sugar, I have...

    Hi nosher8355, I'm still finding my way around here and should have posted here instead of the personal message I sent! I had a bad day yesterday, I suppose working shifts isn't helping my RH although I don't work nights anymore which can only be a positive. I'm not going to be eating...

    Hi Brunneria, Thanks for reply. That's very helpful, I will ditch the bran flakes and go for the eggs. I'm off to see the dietician soon for the first time so I will ask lots of questions!

    Hi and thank you for the welcome and for replying. I have been watching/avoiding my sugars, eat low carbs. I eat plenty of fresh veg and work hard on not spiking my sugars. I was seen in a&e about 2 months ago with bm of 2.1 they kept me in overnight, I had a fasting 4 hour blood glucose test...

    Hi, I have been recently diagnosed with RH. I am confused to say the least! Is RH recognised as a form of diabetes? I have trouble keeping my bm above 3.6, I have symptoms at about 2.9 so I'm constantly checking my sugars. When I do get sugars about 5, they remain there for short periods of...
