[QUOTE="ChocFish, post: 85513, member: 981"] Hello broxiebear and welcome to the forum, Dennis has already giving you some really good advice there for starters and it is good to hear that you are testing your bg, because by testing you will find out how the different foods affect you and if they raise your bg you will know to cut down on them o cut them out altogether. There is so much info on diabetes in this forum and elsewhere you will be overwhelmed and panic with information overload, so take your time to read up on things and never hesitate to ask any questions, there is always someone here with just the right answer. The aim is that you are healthy and keeping your bg at non-diabetic levels. At the moment your bg is higher than it should be, and you will be shocked or angry or confused or just wont believe that this has happened to you but do not worry the more you learn about diabetes the better you will feel. You are probably sweating more because of the higher bg or do you sweat normally like this? I certainly sweat or hmmmm women are supposed to glow I think someone once said....anyway as it happens my colleague's husband is also a tyre fitter and he used to sweat loads too, but then he found something to help him, he is wearing wrist bands to prevent sweat from his arms running on to his hands, he also got hold of a few pairs of thin cotton gloves, he still can feel all he is doing, he sprays his hands with a good antiperspirant or uses a roll on, then applies talc and puts on the gloves, he says its very effective, although he does go through 2 - 3 pairs a day, they go in the washing machine, though they come out stained a lot of the time, they are free from sweat and ready to put on again, he has several pairs of them. Maybe this could be of use to you too? All the best Karen [/QUOTE]
