I don't have any dipsticks but was thinking of buying some. My BS isn't high at all I think I'm worrying over nothing

Hi Does anyone know if it's possible to have ketoacidosis when you are already on medication and a type 2 diabetic. I just feel really poorly lately and am worried it's ketoacidosis like it was when I was first diagnosed

It must be sensitive to cold then if it is with overheating

Twice I've done it when I'm cold and had 3.6 and 3.8 but then when I warm up I'm 6-7

Yes but it then drops below 4 not long after that

If you test blood sugar when you have cold hands does that make the result come back lower?

Hi I have had another issue today, had my tea (slimming world doner kebab and salad) and under 2 hours later I am at 4.3 Yesterday I had yoghurt and a banana chopped in and my blood sugar was stable at 6.6 for hours (I also tried taking 1 metformin later in the day not 2 as usual in the morning)

I have the similar breakfast each day, and the problem Is not with low 3s it's because it drops quickly. Just happened to drop below 4 today, it usually goes to 4.1 then I take glucose tablets to boost it up

It is the slimming world plan I am following so fruit is essential to this, also I shall do it tomorrow and report results

I didn't feel bad until I tested it to be honest and it was just because I have a lot of problems with low sugar at that time of day. Also I walked maybe 5 minutes but did feel a bit stressed

Hi everyone, I'm having problems with my blood sugar levels, I have recently joined slimming world after advice from my GP and am finding my blood sugar drops quickly on a morning when I go out a couple of hours after breakfast. I have also had a problem today when it went from 5.6 to 3.6 in 15...

Thank you, if it doesn't ease off over weekend I'll be there on Monday

Did it just happen quickly? When you first got it

Hi Has anyone who is type 2 had any problems with leg heaviness or strange feeling in one leg? It came on suddenly and I'm debating if I should go to the doctors next week?

Hi guys, is it possible to have diabetes ketoacidosis without high BS results. I'm feeling a bit rough but no high BS results. Was never shown how to test for ketones

Does anyone else's BS get affected by the warm weather, I am overweight and sweat loads as soon as it gets warm and I'm suffering low BS. I've been on lyxumia for over a month now and take 3 500mg metformin Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

I woke up after having my lyxumia and my sugar was 3.0, I had lucozade and a Mars bar and it was 4.1 20 minutes later, now I've tested again at 10.46 and it was 3.4. This time I've had some dextrose tablets and it's 4.2. What's going on as it's not normally like this? Sent from the Diabetes...
