Unfairness of any description
Hi Everyone,
So I have my new meter, I have been putting off using it for a couple of days :eh: but I finally used it today, bearing in mind that my Hba1c was 12.3 5 weeks ago, and my thumb prick was 19.7 (fasting) today my morning readin was 11.3, still very high but better than 19.7. Two hours after breakfast, two weetabix and skimmed milk with a cup of tea, my reading was 12.3, I was just wondering does it appear that my levels are coming down significantly enough in the time scale of 5 weeks of low carbing, or should I be showing better results, if so should I be cutting my carbs down even further, this diabetes thing is very hard to understand sometimes, but I want to get it right so when I go back to the docs in October andmy results be a lot lower than they were, interestingly the optician says my eyes have drastically improved and won't prescribe me new specs for another two weeks, so I must be doing something right......please tell me yes someone!!!!!
