https://mysugarwatch.je/package/# This seems very new? Can't seem to find any reviews online of any shared experiences but it seems like a non invasive form of blood glucose monitoring. Not sure how safe it is or if its even legitimate- has anyone else come across it? I came across this as...

I know it was silly of me, as I had a weak moment. How do you suggest I move forward as I do want to incorporate a little more carbs?

Yeah it did work but I had a moment today. Unfortunately I didn't test it before my hba1c test early this month so I have no idea what kind of numbers I got. Not sure if maybe the sudden hit and increase in carbs today is what also lead to a big spike

My prediabetes hba1c is 42 Also I was on a keto diet, very low carbs for the 3-4 weeks so the highest figure I had was about 5.2mmol

So I've been on a keto diet for the past month or so. Unfortunately I slipped up today and had a sandwich + 2 x crisps... checked my BG 2 hrs later and it was at 8.6, checked again to be sure and it was 8.1. Surely this is extremely high for someone with prediabetes?

I think I'm just concerned I may have inadvertently got DKA. Yeah I have been drinking a lot of water. I guess I am just worried due to my dry mouth and increased thirst/urination. I am clearly not familiar with the keto diet as I keep panicking with high readings.

Were you feeling quite thirsty? Dry mouth? Or increased urination

My blood ketones have risen to 4mmol/l after eating so I will call as I am very concerned

Yeah this was my post yesterday which I couldn't edit, but it was before my blood ketone result which has worried me even more today.

Sorry I was unable to provide an update on my previous post - unsure how to navigate But I posted a concern regarding DKA My blood sugars are 4.7mmol upon waking My main concern is I have now tested my blood ketone levels too and they show up as 2.9mmol upon waking. I have tested them again...

Update: i tested my blood ketone levels upon waking and my figure was 2.9

Ohhh right! Thank you! That makes a lot more sense. I think I got more confused as I am prediabetic so didn't want to cause any harm to myself. I am very thirsty but I'm sure that's pretty standard with dietary ketosis anyway. Thanks so much for explaining, I was worried by ketosis would...

If the blood ketone number was over 5? Would that be an emergency? I am confused as to the optimal range for a prediabetic doing a keto diet

Thank you! It's after 2 months so still a while! I just got concerned looking at the high ketone reading on my urine dipstick test.

Thank you I don't have anything to check my blood ketones but just checking my urine for now

Ah thank you! I was panicking a little as my urine sample was +++ on ketones so wasn't sure if this was dangerous for me. My blood glucose levels are low at the moment and have been low for the past 24 hours too.

My blood glucose levels are 4.1 upon waking so no high levels of glucose currently

Hi As a prediabetic I've cut down all carbs and really stuck to a keto diet. My blood glucose have been low for the past few days and well managed However I did a urine dipstick test which is positive for ketone but negative for glucose. Is this something to be concerned about? On one hand it...

No I am not on any medication I am trying to change by diet and lifestyle first

Hi I have recently been told by the GP that I have prediabetes, not surprised as I began to have nerve issues. Anyway my hba1c was 42. Just to add I am in my late 20s so was mortified. I have since cut out all carbs. No bread, rice, sugar etc. Just been eating protein and fibre. However I...
