[QUOTE="cugila, post: 152074, member: 15325"] As a Type 1 the 2010 NICE Guideline BG levels are as follows. Fasting (waking) .............between 4 - 7 mmol/l. 2 hrs after meals.............no more than 9 mmol/l. f the post meal reading is lower so much the better. You do not need to call a Dr at the level quoted just check for Ketones. Not exactly sure where you read that information ? It is not a massively high level and is related to the food eaten. You can get Ketostix prescribed or purchase from any Pharmacy. Some meters also read ketone levels but different strips are required. If the ketone levels are high and Bg levels are also high then medical attention should be sought. Ken [/QUOTE]
