Hi mike have a look at dr r bernstein's book "diabetis explained 4 th edition" he states normal bs's are between 3.4 to 4.8 with a rise of only 1.0 and returning to normal within 1 hr, there are a few posters on here who regularly post at 3.4 , i myself am aiming for 4.3 or thereabouts. But as we know were all........different :)
Sorry to hear about your lousy day, maybe you need a check up or visit your DSN, you may need more insulin. My BGs have started swinging a lot lately and have now been getting ketones. Tests been sent to lab for possible Type 1 or LADA. Cheer up Pav, tomorrow is another day but you feel like sh*t when you are hyperglycaemic.I always feel unwell when my bgs go into the low 4's, start shaking and sweating

Morning level:6.2 mmol/l
Pre dinner: 7.7 mmol/l
I wish I knew why the differences occur. Still, better these numbers than something beyond the 7s.I sometimes get high 4's before tea and before bed, and occasionally before lunch, but never fasting. If I see a 4 at bedtime my liver hates it and knocks me back to the 5's by morning. However, I never notice any funny feelings in the 4's.
It is just that you are eating good low carb and healthy stuff. Could just be insulin resistance as your body is adapting to Novamix which I reckon is the same as Humulin M3, short and long acting insulins 30% human and 70% isophane insulin.Thanks Eddie. Think its a combination of things, it becomes a bit of a vicious cycle doesn't it? I think your right, I need to see my GP, get my anti depressants changed too, they're not helping anymore

I've not had a cig in two years, did 9 month on ecigs then 12 months on nicotinelle lozenges, gave them up about two months ago.
I could still murder a fag....
Hi Pavlovsdog Over here guad mexico and PDR is Prolific Diabetic Retinopathy.Hi Adrian, can I ask where is 'over here'? And what is PDR?
I'm just a little overweight 3-5 kg. probably. I been loosing weight last half year but haven't notice any important change in my BP is always above 140/90 yes Proliforative Diabetic retinopathy.PDR = Proliforative Diabetic retinopathy?
As far as your blood pressure is concerned; do you carry any excess weight? My BP was higher than optimal when diagnosed, but dropped fairly promptly to healthy scores when I dropped a bit of weight. Last time I went GP was so disinterested in it that she asked what it was these days and didn't bother checking for herself.
