Hey guys,
Newly diagnosed type 1 end of June this year, getting on ok but still have many questions that I'm sure I'll be able to answer myself with experience.
I was told to drive I need to be at least 6mmol or above. This has been fine until the other day when it was close to lunch and my reading was 5.7. What would you guys do at this point eating wise? Surely I'm too high to be packing down glucose tablets but then if I eat something else like an oat cake it takes too long for my sugar to come up, what would you do?
Thanks,
Mike.
