I have been worried about being possibly borderline diabetic for months now. My symptoms are: needing the toilet more often and slight shaking of the hands/arms when I haven't eaten for a while.
So yesterday I purchased a blood glucose meter and have tested myself a few times:
Last night, before bed and approximately 2 hours after eating, my level was 5.9mmol/L.
This morning, first thing, my level was 4.2mmol/L.
An hour after breakfast (one slice brown toast) my level was 4.4mmol/L.
An hour after dinner this evening, my level was 7.8mmol/L.
I hope this is ok. What do you think?
Thanks,
Gareth
