Hi All,
Thought it was about time to join this forum thing since I am a housewife and apparently spend most of my time on the internet ! the cleaning/cooking/toddler can wait ....
I was diagnosed as type in 2 Sept 2008 after having gestational in 2007 when pregnant with my son. I am pretty sure it never actually went away in between. I am on metformin, rosiglitazone and gliclazide along with thrice weekly gym sessions, walking with the pushchair and what according to the dietician is a good diet. I am only 33 and have a normal BMI. Despite all this I can rarely get a blood sugar in single digits and it is so disheartening to run 7k then still have a crazy reading (e.g. 12.2) having eaten only proper porridge & sweetener for breakfast before that run. Surely I need insulin soon ???? Any suggestions welcome !
