First Appointment without official diagnosis?

Phew, glad you agree what I'm doing is right. I'm trying not to change my diet too much but cutting down on carbs and eating no added sugar. Just being healthier to see if I can kick start me feeling better. Woke up this morning with an 18.1 reading though, so feeling incredibly down in the dumps today.
 
It best to advoid all suger not just added suger, for example orange juice is just as bad as coke.
 
I can’t see the harm in collecting information at this stage about what foods are doing. Whichever way diagnosis goes it’ll still be useful to understand it.

currently I'm only drinking water or slimline sodas. But no all sugar is bad, fruit and veg is still recommended as far as everything I have read says...

That's what I was thinking, at least I can take that along with my blood sugar readings as they may be able to pick out the patterns more than me at my appointment on Monday
