[QUOTE="Butterfly1960, post: 1532409, member: 422454"] I agree with all the advice given above I was diagnosed in March and in shock for at least a month My diabetes nurse was very helpful, and told me to count carbs and informed me of these forum sites for diabetics I've been following the low carb programme, now in week 3 I got myself a BG monitor, and use it 3/4 times daily Diagnosed 140! Then June 79, so her advice was working, but I needed more help!! My BP is high (Forgotten readings, will ask her today for past and present BP) and using both Amlodipine (x1) and Metformin ( Slow release x2 ) My self readings on BG levels were 16, and gradually now in 7's and sometimes even the odd 6! :) I hope eventually to not to have to take either of these meds, by controlling thru diet Good luck to all, who like me are just starting to get to grips with diabetes ;) [/QUOTE]
