[QUOTE="KiwiInOz, post: 1878921, member: 490340"] Thanks everyone, especially for the links for more reading. And yes I am in Australia but this forum seems to be the most active and has the best info so I hoped you wouldn't mind me interloping. I went to the chemist and bought a blood glucose monitor. Took me an hour to prick myself - that is so unnatural. I didn't have a monitor because I'm extremely needle phobic! So I've done my first blood test 9.3 mmol/L This is pre-lunch so I hadn't eaten for 4.5 hours. I'll test again in 1.5 hours which will be 2 hours after eating. I guess this is still too high but much better than yesterday. I'll read the 101 links and Daisy's advice and links. Thanks for taking the time to answer. Cheers Sharyn [/QUOTE]
