What was your fasting blood glucose? (with some chat)

Yes @Butterfly1960 . I've had to rotate a saved pic then download onto her in past. If upside down delete your post then rotate opposite way on saved on camera then post til upright?
Ta for all the advice on photos wrong way round, sorry for any extra pain in the neck!!
I have discovered that it only happens with my mobile phone! When I upload direct from laptop, all works just fine and dandy So I will dump all my pics off my phone to my laptop and hey presto! no crick in the neck!!
 
How much to bail you out @Diabeticliberty ?!?

Hi Freema
Well done on getting your readings and weight down. Can you offer any advise on how you did it. I would be grateful
Have a lovely day

Hello daisy1. I know stress levels alter my BS levels, I do not normally check BS level after being stressed because it can lead to disappointment which then leads to more stress. I'm a truck driver who never ever are able to check BS level at the same time each day as each start time finish time is different. However, I must admit, seeing first being diagnosed with T2, in late August, I have lost 3kg in weight. As for my BS level this morning, well that was a little high at 10.1 that's because I had half of a small cream cake.
 
Because I've had type 1 for so long (50 years in December) I have lost hypo awareness, I can be 2.0 and still function , I have tried running levels higher but my consultant said that due to the length of time I won't get it back.

Wish I knew more about loss of hypo awareness. Betablocker suppose to disguise them too but I think I've been lucky so far.
