[QUOTE="Jenny15, post: 1811035, member: 196992"] Hi Marcus, glad your meter arrived. I had to convert from US into UK to see that your numbers were between 8.8 and 7.8. What would be really helpful is if you could take a reading when you wake up (fasting BG) then before a meal and two hours after. Please note down what you ate at the meal, too. Your three results show that your BG was decreasing in the 3 hours after your meal, which is good, but they don't show much else because we don't have the pre-meal reading. This link has tables showing what normal vs diabetic BG readings are, in the US format your meter uses: [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/diabetes_care/blood-sugar-level-ranges.html[/URL] You are getting closer to finding out what your BG levels are doing. I am hesitant to say more until there is more data available. Dizziness can be caused by diabetes but also by many other things. It's almost bedtime for me so I won't be able to respond for a while, but I hope to catch up with you later. [/QUOTE]
