Hi,im Val aged 57 and have only recently dagnosed as T2 purely by accident. I was having bloods taken for another reason ande they realised I had a BG30.The worrying thing tho apart from the3 litres of water i was drinking every day and the weight loss. I never gave diabetes a thought. What really worried me tho was
the fact that i had no other symptoms. No one has told me what could have happened if it went untreated. I dont know about others but i have had very little help or advice.I have bought a book and a cook book which was very helpful.It gives advice and recipies .
What really concerns me is the conflicting advice on the web. I am also puzzled at my BG levels.On a morning first thing it is high, over 10, but on an evening tends to be 7 -9. Only once has it got down to 5,5.I dont know what im doing wrong.I would have thought the morning would be lower.
Finally should i be contacting the GP as they are still above normal, but i feel ok.
Sorry for going on a bit im so confused and have loads more questions,but you would fall asleep b4 you got to the end
