Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="lucylocket61" data-source="post: 284931" data-attributes="member: 41885">My DSN only uses dipsticks for testing when I go. And as my appointments are always around 3 hours or so since I last ate, and they only show over 10mmol. I am always considered to be wasting her time as my levels are normal by then. (by normal I mean under 7.8 which, according to her, is normal)She assures me that only over 10mmol is a problem. That I am over-anxious. That I dont need to test with my meter (the doctor over-road her advice at my request and made her give me one and 50 strips a month) and that I can eat anything, including white bread. I can even have the odd chocolate bar, like a Mars bars sized one, if I dont do more than once a week. I only have a touch of diabetes, not serious diabetes  :crazy: Thank heavens for this forum or I would be in real trouble very quickly, I think.</blockquote>
