[QUOTE="Dixon1995, post: 1894201, member: 487884"] Hello, Alcohol has an effect on your sugar whereby it can lower your blood sugars when on an empty stomach. Be careful though, because depending on which alcoholic drink your drinking, such as cidar, it could contain hidden sugars, such as Kopparburg, Dark fruits, WKD and other fruity tasting alcoholic beverages, which can send sugars spiking. If you went to the doctors and she gave you a finger prick there and then and tested your sugars with a glucose meter, that is what the bloods are, if not, she was probably telling you your HBA1C results, when you had your bloods taken in a vial from the blood in your arm and get this done on your annual or 6 monthly or 3 monthly diabetic checkup..
