I've had my diagnosis for a few weeks now and just got my hands on a monitor... Over the past couple of days my reading has been fluctuating between 10 & 19.5... that seems scary to me. While I'm not a healthy eater, I've been trying to be more considerate. I've also cut out all drinks bar tea and water (was drinking 2l Coke/day)... Been using My fitness Pal to record meals, and it seems happy with my eating... I'm struggling to understand what eating does to my glucose levels... It seems that sometimes it rises and sometimes falls after eating...
Allot of the diabetic services have closed here due to the pandemic, so I'm struggling to get to grips with all the information. The internet is full of conflicting information, so I'm finding it difficult to work out what I'm dealing with.
I'm not on medication yet... But I'm amazed I'm so far off on the readings. Excersise needs to pick up starting today. But I'd appreciate any pointers or helpful ideas... thanks in advance
