Hi, y'all, so i take four 500mg Metformin a day, two morning two after last meal. I just had my last meal and went to take my meds. I took the first one, but then something happened which caused me to get distracted, and now I don't know if I took the second one plus an extra. I'm worried now...

Hi, i tried this, but no, it wants photo ID, which i don't have!

I'll try this, many thanks [emoji4]

Gp. When i was first diagnosed, they told me anyhting below three is low, anyhting above seven is high.

I range between 6 and depends on what I have anything up to 9 or 10

Yes

Yes. On a good night I get between 7-10 hours.

I used a website and it told me I'm slightly overweight.

I think I have body dismorphia. When I'm walking or lying flat, I feel skinny, but then. I look down and see my reflection and see my true self. I hate the way I look! I know people say i look fine and all that, but i don't feel fine! And because I'm petite it's harder to lose the weight

Aww no way, your dog sounds so sweet! Mine likes to keep me on my toes! Being in a band sounds amazing!

Hi, I've never had to book in to discuss my results. My doctors do the bare minimum. I phone up five days after the blood test and and they say if something is wrong or if something isn't ! Also, they do my blood pressure, foot checks and weight!

All but the shopping, yes! And I forgot to mention walking my dog, lol [emoji38]

Hi, sorry for the confusion, so my avergae blood sugar should be between four and seven, but mine goes higher than seven, it goes as high as ten! I need ID to get access to my results, but i don't have ID!

Hi, i can't get onto the app due to not having ID, but i do use this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mysugr.android.companion It does give the option to see the average blood sugar after twenty one days, but i don't always test. I do try to test three or more times a day...

I plan to see a doctor on Tuesday

No, it's fine, I'm grateful of the help! I was put on Metformin just after my diagnosis, as a baby I wasn't putting on weight so I had to go on a high sugar diet, so i had a lot of soda/fizzy drinks, I ate a lot of rubbish as a kid, chocolate, candy/sweets, when i had dinners, I had plate sized...

The exhaustion could be because of my sugars or bad diet or something else. My diet isn't the greatest. I've gone downhill in the last six weeks. I found out that the sugar free foods I do eat still have a sweetener in there which spikes my sugars, so i am being careful but also giving up on...

Hi, I do finger pricks, they can vary from four to sometimes 8. I test before meals and only test after if I feel dizzy, weak, jelly etc!

Hi, when i was first diagnosed, they mainly called and said your sugars are in the high teens, you need to come hospital ASAP, so i did. I do eat brown pasta, sometimes white. I don't eat rice. I eat bread things, a lot of pasta or potato, every now and then I have a bit of mash or sausage or a...
