Unfortunately it’s a surgery run by my GP and his wife. His wife is amazing but I think most of the patients think the same but she only works two mornings a week. I think I will be going to a new GP I can actually speak to face to face. My partners GP give out appointments on that day but...

Mistakes do happen I e worked for the NHS for 15 years and I adore our NHS I’m just sad the direction it’s going. However I don’t agree with the new telephone appointment with my GP as if we was face to face he would see that I’m not over weight. (If he had to give medication he would have been...

I will try to follow a low as possible carb diet also I hadn’t realised a chai latte was high carb (my bad) I just assumed I made it bad by putting two sugars in. Is it because of the milk? I don’t have milk or sugar in anything else. Surely we need some form of calcium for bones? It must be...

Hi all just a few questions if I can get any advice. If my blood sugars spike an hour after I’ve ate but slowly come down 2 to 3 hours after a meal is that normal for a non diabetic. They’ve ranged from 13.3 to 10.3 then slowly come down. If I drink a chai latte with two sugars but no food...

Thanks I just feel the doctor isn’t taking me seriously my blood sugars are spiking to highs of 11.3 and above and my doctor isn’t listening so I think it must be normal. Makes me fed up coz not sure if I’m just over thinking it

Thank you I think I will go private because I’ve ate two chip sandwiches an hour ago (bad I know but fed up of always watching my food intake). And my blood sugar after an hour is 11.3 and tested it twice and both was around the same. Somethings not right. I’m on pregablin 300mg a day I think...

Just a quick question. Is it normal or ok for a non diabetic to spike at between 9.3 and 11 an hour after each meal? I’ve been doing people’s blood sugars since I was 21 and I’m now 35 as part of my job so I know what I’m doing. I’ve even got my partner to eat the same meal (but he had a...

Nothing until everything is back. Would that mean everything is working as it should?

So I’ve had a few tests and one was the glucose Tolerance Test and at 30 min my blood sugar was 12. An hour later 11.8 and then 2 hours later it was 3.2. Is this a good result? I’ve not been diagnosed as diabetic I’m being tested because of high blood sugars at times. I’m awaiting results of...

Thank you I will do this and show the advanced practitioner tomorrow. Hopefully it’s just my diet causing it or stress. Or I’m just testing at the wrong time. I was out shopping with my children and they had a macdonalds so I had a small jacket potato with cheese and beans and a tea no milk...

I wanted some advice please. I had a migraine the other week and was very poorly so had to ring an ambulance. This was due to numbness which I do normally suffer with during a prodrome to migraine but normally I always get blurred vision but this time I didn’t so didn’t realise I was having a...
