[QUOTE="Mommayorkie, post: 1669743, member: 37348"] i dont understand what your talking about. 1. you can go too low with your blood sugars.that happened with my sister and they had to reduce her meds. 2. what is wrong with keeping levels level if they are under 7? as i understand it, 7 is the top wack when you are diagnosed as pre diabetes. under 7 is normal.3. what makes you think i dont have a fridge?i do but unfortunately its not very big. i have very little storage space here because as ive said before my bungalow is very tiny. i never said i had no fridge. 4. i can get deliveries but they dont always deliver what i order. as i said before, last week was the fish i had ordered. time n time again they fail to deliver something .and you cannot get one item delivered. you have to do £25 orders with one supermarket 35 with 2 others . they dont accept less. and before anyone says it. no i cant either afford another 25 quid a week just for 1 item they've not delivered. nor do i have space here for more food items than i already have. . and i have to do online shop weekly now as my storage space was drastically reduced when they did renovations here a few years ago. i wont go into it but i lost a lot of shelf space .. so no, i have no need to go to freecycle etc for a fridge. and i do not know how you came to the conclusion that i did.......... as far as i'm concerned i've wasted more time on this and still didn't get an answer to my question. what can i, as an elderly , disabled, woman who cant exercise, do to keep my bs down while on steroids which are making it pretty high....... especially late evening.its a short course only of 6 tablets daily for 6 days, and i am on diabetic meds too (forxiga 10mg in a morning) which is another thing i wonder if you took on board going by one remark you made...anyway i am done with this site. thanks for trying to help but it didn't. all its done is make me more depressed./ [/QUOTE]
