Hi Veronica wondering where are you based...on those measurements I'm assuming it's outside the UK?...here we tend to measure our blood sugars in % or mmol/L...on the assumption your BG is recorded in mg/dl that would roughly convert to a 16.9 in our system...that is high but can be managed with the right regime...wondering how long since your diagnosis?...were you started on insulin immediately or is that a response to increasing blood sugars...when I was diagnosed my blood sugars were at 17.4 now I have an average of 5.7 so with the right regime we can make a positive difference.

Hi Folks. Been off thread for a few days. Been on a bender actually. I can't have one drink. It's either no drink or the whole bottle.
Lots of stress. My nephew is coming to the UK from Canada and we have yacht sailing planned, on my boat, South Coast to France. My fresh water tank was leaking. Plus some other yachtee stuff. But, I seem to have fixed these issues, touch wood!
Alcohol is a powerful force. I used to work for a brewery. It is not so easy to say adios. Placing this alongside diabetes T2 gives me extra challenge.
I know that many people on this forum have their own issues. I think we need to be motivated by Winston Churchill who said "Let Us move Forward Together".
HiHello mates,
At a couple of the other forums I've frequented there was a thread like this one where we all sorta checked in each day, with our first cup of coffee or tea, and reported our fasting or waking blood glucose level and some short comment about whether we're ok with it or if not - why not?...
It worked well as a sort of 'first thread to check' each morning and post to.
I'll start.
This morning was a 5.6mmol for me. That's about normal for me
What about you?
thanks everyone for all your well wishes and words of support ive had a great first day staff all seem lovely (time will tell haha ) xx
