[QUOTE="VashtiB, post: 2240440, member: 511345"] Hello and welcome, A lot of us have been where you are. Many of us type 2s are told we don't need to test. That is because some of the medical profession believe it is a progressive illness and nothing you can do to prevent it. That is simply not true. I think regular testing is essential particularly at first. How else can you know what effect the food you ate had on your levels.. Get a meter and test. The next thing is read the links that were provided by [USER=100904]@Pipp[/USER] They are full of helpful information. My personal take on the current corona virus is to keep strictly low carb- that makes my blood sugar levels as low as possible . If I get the virus that will raise my blood sugar levels so I want the lowest point for it to start from. I also think that the medical profession is learning more and more about this virus every day. I think taking precautions is good. If you can self isolate without causing other problems that might be good but you have to look after yourself all the time, I can't self isolate at the moment so I'm using hand sanitiser and disinfectant wipes and washing my hands very regularly. Good luck and welcome. [/QUOTE]
