[QUOTE="Quirkybee, post: 1236974, member: 325261"] I've received my lot today, with 250 extra strips, cable and lancets. :) I've used 3 lancets for each test this evening. Just been trying to get used to this kit really, but getting there slowly. However, my reading an hour after meal was 15.6, then hour later 13.5. Is this very high? Tested my friend who isn't diabetic and she was 6.7. I don't want to test if it's going to make me stress more though as I've been told by the Dietitian today that I don't really need to test for a T2. Plus she didn't really agree with the LCHF diet. So I'm. Totally confused now as to who to believe. Those on here or listen to the Dietitian. I've had very useful advice from this site though, but worried as she said if I start eating higher in fat foods, then it will certainly increase my weight. She also couldn't understand how my hbac1 has been 40 for years, then the last 4-5 months is raised to 70 odd and then 113. She expected me to have put on a lot of weight. But she did say that stress can affect diabetes and I have a lot of stress right now, but no different to the last couple of years. I really don't know what I've done differently for my glucose to raise like it did. How can I lower my sugar depending on the meal consumed, plus what if it is still up when I test upon waking, after fasting all night? [/QUOTE]
