[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 2314065, member: 345386"] Sounds like you have a plan Helen. Personally, in your shoes, I would acquire a meter and a pot of strips, then when/if you have a bit of a turn, you can test what your sugars are like at the time. The reflecting back on what you had eaten or drunk beforehand could give you a clue to your triggers. Even people living with a diagnosis of diabetes find that some (often carby) foods affect them in surprising ways. For some, potatoes, or rice, or whatever are blood glucose rocket fuel, and for others there is a less extreme impact. For me, it was important to learn about [I][B]my[/B][/I] body, rather than focus on the principles. Fingers crossed for you. Don't be a stranger. It'd be good to hear how you get along with it all.
