[QUOTE="))Denise((, post: 427488, member: 27532"] We are here to help. Urine sticks are useless because they only show levels when they are really high. Get yourself a meter - The codefree is an inexpensive one [url=http://www.homehealth-uk.com/medical/blood_glucose_monitor_testing.htm]http://www.homehealth-uk.com/medical/bl ... esting.htm[/url] they also sell them on Amazon and Ebay. Your doc probably won't give you one or a prescription for strips. With regard to what you are eating, it is not all about sugar, it is about carbs. Carbs are what raise your blood sugar. Go easy on bread, cakes, pasta, rice, potatoes, veg that grows below ground. Veg that grows above ground is good. Fruit in moderation but bananas and tropical fruit not good. A good website for a finding out what to eat is [url=http://www.dietdoctor.com/lchf]http://www.dietdoctor.com/lchf[/url] Read the introduction [url=http://www.diabetes.co.uk/diabetes-forum/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=26870]viewtopic.php?f=39&t=26870[/url] which Daisy usually posts to new members. We were all newbies once, so stick around. [/QUOTE]
