A little advice please. I am t2. No meds. Low carb at around 40g. Test between 4.9 and 5.6. All good. But now have a chesty winter cold. Find I am testing around 4.2 to 4.8 the last 48 hours. Feeling slightly dizzy. Not sure whether to go with it or increase carbs. Thanks in advance.
 
Hi @Lizzypier, You are on very low carbs so it probably wouldn't hurt to have a few more? Are you eating enough though? You may find your BGs shoot up too, mine usually go really high if I am unwell. :depressed:

Hope you feel better soon!

Thanks for this. One of these days I will post my 5month so far story. It's been pretty good til today. Guessing it might mean an extra cracker of two
