[QUOTE="akabob, post: 147802, member: 28283"] Well, I might have come across as a bit abrasive and impatient. If I did then I apologise. The standard/automated reply that was given by Sugarless Sue whilst informative was without meaning to me. I’d read that advice on other posts. I wanted answers to specific questions – it was only in this sense that the advice given was inappropriate. So once again sorry. I don’t know what ‘the strips’ are or what to do with them. I don’t know what terms such as mmol/ mean. I’ve checked these terms out but the science is meaningless to me. I don’t know what it all means. So telling me the NICE guidelines is not meaningful or helpful to be. In the meantime I’ve looked at information about diabetics on a variety of sites in UK, Australia etc. The information is daunting and from an initial perspective conflicting. On the one hand I need carbohydrates but on the other I need to avoid if on low carb diet. It’s confusing and contradictory to me. How do I know I need to be on low carb diet? I’d like to specifically say thank you to Patch for answering the specific questions I asked. I now know that I am considerably sicker than I realised initially. (So as you can see, Dollyrocker, I am extremely grateful). [/QUOTE]
