Hi,
I posted this in the Type 1 section but did not get a response so thought l would try here.
I am type 1 since Feb, low carber, avid exerciser and last HBA1C was 5.6%. My docs are really happy but l think want to mak sure the low carbing is not having any adverse effects so have given me a new monitor to check my Ketones. I have only tested once... a few days ago and it was 1.0. On the pack it says that they should be below 0.6%. I do not fully understand yet about the Ketosis state and l assume that is why my Ketones are a little bit higher? I just wanted to make sure this was okay and get some further information before l go back to my docs.
Thank you all in advance x
