[QUOTE="dancer, post: 1817315, member: 110569"] [USER=479207]@Kayleigh1008[/USER] there's lots of good advice above. You mentioned your husband's blood sugar was 10 after eating healthily. I wonder if he is like my husband who's alcohol free choice of drink was cola. When diagnosed Type 2, he changed to orange juice (nice and healthy!) till I pointed out that I drink OJ to raise my blood sugar, when I have hypos. There's loads of lovely low carb meals you could make for both of you . . . but you can't force him to eat them. If he got on better when he was prescribed test strips, if you can afford to, buy some online. If he can see what foods raise his blood sugar, he can avoid them. He's a young man, so hopefully he'll take control of his diabetes, for himself as well as you. There's loads of information available on the forum. Maybe he could take a look. [/QUOTE]
