[QUOTE="ladybird64, post: 1080432, member: 29023"] Muddles, just a thought but something stood out to me in your initial post. I understand about the reaction to the SSRI, but you mentioned that you had eaten rice pudding with jam before the test was done. Do you think there is any chance that you could have had any trace of this, especially the jam, on your fingers when the test was taken? Reason for asking, that would give a totally false reading because of the sugar on your fingers.. And not saying you eat with your fingers by the way, but know it's easy when making puds to lick sticky fingers when finished lol. What I will say, as a fellow anxiety sufferer (not health or diabetes related) is that a definitive diagnosis is just words, a label. Tablets can help a little, but the best control comes from eating a better diet, with fewer carbs - it is possible to live a happy life with diabetes but it does require commitment:) [/QUOTE]
