[QUOTE="Mark_1, post: 1531621, member: 385945"] Agree with the above and just to add to whats already been said. Q1 Should I take blood sugar levels? Before meals, after meals, and I think first thing in morning gives a overall trend. Q2 Do we testing kit on scripts? TEE2 is free with cheap strips or a Libre will give you a full picture but is expensive, maybe get one for a few weeks to try and it will give you an idea of what meals suit you. Q3 What is worse, high sugar or low sugar and what are the considered levels of low sugars and high sugar levels? Between 4 and 7.8 would be a goal to aim for. Q4 Also this 3 monthly blood test peeps are going on about as more accurate picture of your levels, what is a target level to be aiming for? Long term would be below 42. Its a different set of numbers so 42 or less is not diabetic, up to 48 is pre-diabetic and over 48 is diabetic but for now, better than last time would be my goal. [/QUOTE]
