Hi as a newbie found this really interesting- been diagnosed for a couple of years but been really unwell and only diabetic info has been what I've picked up. Collected a repeat script monday and pharmacist called me into his little room as he was concerned about the mix of meds I'm on and couldn't believe I don't test daily. Armed with this I went straight back to gp and finally got a prick test kit Today - heck of a gadget but finally got first reading .... 8.5 !! Trouble is i now need advice as to whether that's good or bad !! Can anyone help with this please?Hello 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?
