Thanks for the reply! I actually have an app 2moro with the nurse so was going to ask about it when I was there! It sounds amazing!

Aw thanks, can't quite believe I've done it myself! That's over a year right enough. That's what i do aswell, anything to avoid needles lol. It's a good incentive.

I know how u feel, I've lost 5 stone and have one to go, don't know if it's because it's the last stone or because everything is all over the place but it's not budging.

It such a guessing game, I think thats why I don't like it ha Ha! I like to know exactly what I'm doing. Thanks for your help. Will do this tonight and see what happens.

Thanks for your reply! That's good advice actually, i hadnt thought of doing a correction. I will try that. Would u test 2 hrs after the evening meal then correct?

You must have been diagnosed around a similar time as I was. I was feb 14th. Im going to drop it again tonight as I've been 6.1, 4.1, 4.2 today. How have you been getting on since diagnosis?

Hi Helen, could defo be the less stressed thing, feel like I'm coping a bit better now than I was. No exercise or alcohol though.

Thankyou all for your replies. I didn't realise that about the heat so thanks! I've reduced it a wee bit tonight. Luckily I have the DN on Monday so I will say to her about it.

@DCUKMod yes of course, if u could change it that would be great! How do u know if u are type one or LADA? Just because of my age I wondered.

Thankyou @Daibell! Got a phone call yesterday to let me know my antibody test was positive so now confirmed as being type one, so now off the victoza and metformin and awaiting an app at the hospital. No wonder my head is a whirlwind at the moment! :(
