think i maybe diabetic

First thing in the morning readings are not food dependent since the liver contributes some sugar at this time. Nevertheless I see nothing wrong with that reading and I think that when you have your blood test the result may well be favourable.

although that would be good news for me, i have been feeling like this on and off for 18 months now so still would like to get to the bottom of it

It would be good for me and indicate that I had a very healthy meal. A stir fry with meat but no potatoes or rice etc.

i had chilli con carne,white rice and grated cheese and chocolate pudding

Woah !!!!
If I ate the above ... :shock:
It would definetely put me above a 19 reading!!!!!
So your reading of 7.4 is a superb reading, you clearly must have good insulin supplies to
cope with these foods eaten. Plus your waking level of 5.5 is excellent too!
These readings are both great and certainly are not too low 'nor' too high .
Let us know what the blood tests reveal eh... :thumbup:

Have you had your results back yet? We really can't give you advice as has been mentioned to you quite a few times, you need to get clarification from your doctor.

These are the "official" levels for those with diabetes.
