[QUOTE="DaveSyl, post: 1563762, member: 436960"] Thank you none of friends or family or work colleagues bar my fiancé get it and think I am being weird and anti social,the problem I have is a lot of these situations are through work which I can’t get out off, and when there I am honestly sick to death of getting blank looks as people just think diabetes is just can’t have sugar and desserts with no concept of what carbs do, explaining this then results in the conversation being about diabetes or my "ill health" when ironically I have never felt better or been fitter my whole life, and I also don’t want it to be about me as itderails why we are there in the first place. But it’s also what is available to eat I know I can handle around 20-40g of carbs depending on the food with my main meal however these occasions usually put me in a situation where it is much more or just plain unsuitable carbs resulting in these massive spikes with glucose levels in the teens for a few hours which then leave me worried about developing complications.
