Hi ian, i don't remember my reading,or should i say i didn't take it in. It was a bit of a shock been told i'm a diabetic at 35. I'm due to go for my review in the next couple of weeks.
It was a shock at 60 - especially as the helpful Dr told me all the complications I could expect. When you see the DR, insist on getting a printout of your test results. You will be able to understand increasingly the significance & see your progress.
Testing my bloods before after and during playing is something i never thought about, thankyou for that idea. As i said i'm 35 and still coming to terms with things. I haven't had any dietary advice, but have found since starting my medication and watching what i eat i have lost nearly a stone 1/2. feel better for it but as in my first post suffering when playing sport.
thanks
Andy
Do you get test strips on prescription? Again try to insist - you need to get your D under proper control, & find what effects you - & what helps you with your sport.
