[QUOTE="Rachox, post: 2065610, member: 400972"] Many nurses say there’s no point in testing but many of us here ignore that and test to learn about our diabetes. In your case I’d say it’s very important. If there is a possibility of type 1 (with your rapid weight loss there is) you need to look out for high blood sugars. Conversely if you are suffering ‘hypo’ type symptoms which are improved by jelly babies, you need to establish if you really are low or ‘hypo’. I think overall you need to see your GP again. [/QUOTE]
