Do I need Medication?

Hello all, been diabetic for about 3 years and controlled quite well through diet and exercise.

However, started to feel quite unwell lately, weak, thirsty, bad numb spots in legs and feet, tingling.

I bought some test strips and am getting a blood sugar reading of 10 in the morning before eating and upwards of 12 two hours after food.

Is this bad? Do I need to see a dr?

Any advice appreciated.

Thanks. I am booked in at the drs for Tuesday.

I haven't had any other illnesses recently. I think it is down to me getting back into a "comfort" eating zone as I had two years of Hba 1c's of 38 and 39 and basically forgot about diabetes.

It has given me a kick up the backside though. This really is a lifelong condition and will come back and attack with a vengeance if you let your guard down.

Back on the low carbs and exercise for me.

I ate sensibly over the weekend and this morning I was at 6.5 on waking up.

Clearly my poor diet wasn't helping things.
