[QUOTE="John73, post: 1471390, member: 403646"] Just wanted to say a big Thank you to everyone for their advice. I had full bloods done today, never seen so many vials, but with regards to the blood sugar I am not that hopeful. I asked the nurse to test my levels and they were 18. So I made an emergency appt with the diabetic nurse. On speaking with her, she tested my levels again and they were still high, even though I hadn't eaten. I am now writing down what I eat and am testing myself four times a day, before I get up, before and after meals (alternating each meal) and last thing at night. I have an appt with her next Tuesday. She also gave me another monitor and has written a script for the strips and a sharps box. I ate my first meal at 18:45 tonight, not a standard day, was just very busy throughout the day and didn't get a chance to buy something, but my levels tonight were 14.6 so as this is the lowest level I have recorded I am encouraged by this. A long way to go, but it is a start. So Thank you... [/QUOTE]
