[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2383957, member: 493719"] Hi [USER=410185]@Caroline2688[/USER] Dreadful experience from the nurse. Mine is better behaved, but it's still hard to have an Honest conversation. hopefully that improves over time. as a few point out, the help and encouragement isn't always as it should be.. as for BG's..it's good to be aware, and check all is ok But when i struggled i took another viewpoint i took a step back, & let some of that pressure off. it's after all a marathon not a sprint. perhaps you are like many, not able to get the numbers down as quickly as some. perhaps other ailments, a lack of mobility OR just a different chemistry, who knows I got disheartened my numbers came down slower then others, but i carried on and they made it to 40 from 57 in 8 months, so there is hope. as for the fasting V Bgs levels reading so many others tales, a recurring theme was no food made BG go up, weird huh. Many have something, like a piece of cheese, to stave of the DP maybe that might help you. i remember, that when i was finding this hard, i reminded myself, that it took me many decades to get to T2d levels so a few extra months was small change in the grand scheme of things we are but a large vat of Glucose, (stuffed into every cavity it seems,) with more bubbling up each day. Our task is to lower the carbs coming in, as we drain the vat inside we are however up against a wily foe. Our own bodies, who can be reluctant to accept we mean it no harm, before it stops doing it's thing and settles down to our new regime. and as your finding out, the balancing act of our bodies reaction to our good intentions makes those marble in the hole board games seem like Childs play take care, i know you got this.
