[QUOTE="Kyambala, post: 2319204, member: 210735"] Good afternoon Kilchoman, With blood sugars of 20-24 you are DEFINITELY OUT OF CONTROL - and your diet is NOT low carb - considering your job I think your chances of catching Covid 19 is about 90 - 100%, unless you make some QUICK changes. I have been Type 2 now for about 25 years and because I am on Insulin twice daily plus Metformin usually manage to keep my blood sugars between 4.3 and 5.9 - but when I have a cold they can leap up to between 6 -8. I am retired and live in a flat with my wife and don't mix generally with the public except when shopping a couple of times each week. I caught Covid 19 in March and am only about 90% recovered - fortunately my wife is a retired Nurse and she looks after me. You MUST see your Doctor NOW and get a letter from him/her stating his/her MEDICAL opinion as to your RISK ASSESSMENT to Covid 19 considering your type of employment. If you find your "face mask" unsuitable (because it steams up your glasses) you can always wear a "Plastic face Visor" - they only cost £1.99 in "Home Bargains". Please do not DELAY - your health, and posibly your life, is at HIGH RISK. Otherwise, have a nice day. [/QUOTE]
