[QUOTE="leslie10152, post: 1520259, member: 352928"] Exercise as a diabetic is good, but you need to be full on with bgl testing. Remember you burn up extra glucose during active periods - so test frequently, ensure you are well hydrated and have a backup glucose source with you. Activity may raise you glucose levels for a while, and then drop them rapidly. I do a lot of walking, but I go nowhere without glucose tablets and meter. Better safe than sorry. [/QUOTE]
