[QUOTE="Waterlady, post: 2103286, member: 511442"] DCUKMod thank you for your reply [emoji4] We are pretty much the same, though we both work long shifts working in health care and security so often nip to the shops at lunch time etc and just grab something quick! It’s good to know that he didn’t completely change his diet, I’m open to trying knew things so will definitely give it a go [emoji4] We are leaning towards it most likely being type 2, we might know more on Wednesday when we go to see his GP and nurse. His number haven’t gone that high in all honestly, they’re a bit all over the place I think. He had a reading of 7.8 yesterday then after eating was 14 but then today was 10.5 then 14.6 and hasn’t gone back under 10, in fact since using it he’s only had one reading of it being under 10. Thank you for your advice, we will both keep an eye on him [emoji6] he does generally feel a bit run down and just really really tired and “weak” as he puts it. No problem at all, it’s good to know the warning signs. I’ve only ever had minimal experience with diabetes from the patients I care for, so I’m finding it all interesting yet daunting! Absolutely, I’m sure he’ll be on here soon [emoji4] [/QUOTE]
