Ok this is really weird. I just measured my bs before eating - 6.2 while i'm cooking oopsie bread, and i eat two pieces of cheese wrapped in some ham and lettuce. I started to feel very sweaty and re checked and got 14! That's in the hyper/diabetic spectrum! I measured twice again shortly after and it came down to 8 very quickly.
Anyone know what this might be? Carb withdrawal, given what i've eaten today? Should I go back to carbs for breakfast? I don't know what on earth is happening here. I've been emphatically told, on many occassions, that i am NOT diabetic.
Probably a duff reading, I'd say, if it changed very quickly. The tiniest speck of something on your finger can cause high readings.
I'm not a doctor but my personal opinion, based on what you've said is that yes, you should go back to,eating some (not a huge amount) of carbs for breakfast along with protein and fat - ie a balanced diet.
I undrstand how stressful this all is for you, but taking a step back and approaching it logically will be your best option in my opinion. It sounds like the whole thing is stressing you (understandably) but don't let that stress cloud your judgement.
Logic, systems and moderation is my advice.
