I'm a newbie to this forum but also to insulin injections. I live in France but I'm having what I can only describe as language problems in that my French isn't great and my doctor doesn't speak English! My query is this: I have just gone on insulin. My last three-monthly blood test showed a blood sugar level of 9.3. I have done a test every morning for a couple of weeks now and the readings are variable from 1.37 to 2.25 mg/dl. How do these figures compare with my old blood test of 9.3? And by the way, my apologies if this seems like a stupid question but I just don't have a clue!
