Hi Natasha,

Can you fill us in with a bit more information:

- how high are your sugar levels
- how often are you testing
- are you testing before meals, after, or both
- are you on any medication or just diet controlled
- when you say you have cut down on carbs, how much carbohydrate do you normally eat.
