[QUOTE="Dollylolly, post: 1438031, member: 379205"] I was told to stop testing as I'll worry myself silly eh no not testing will worry me more and I said that to both my gp and nurse. I want control of my numbers so I don't get complications later on, and got your A1c is the best one to go by. Like hell it is it is a guide only and helps if I have my monitors numbers to. I now know why I get sleepy and itchy I now know what to avoid food wise All through self testing funded by me and not the NHS as my area refuses to give out meters and strips for T2s on no meds. I'm seriously thinking of writing to my health provider of the benefits as it's cheaper to monitor and keep control now than be in the dark and have serious complications that cost them more in the long run.
