[QUOTE="Cumberland, post: 1829211, member: 190075"] Do you know what really annoys me about this thread is all the twiners moaning because their fasting reading is in the 5s saying it’s high Well fact is it’s not high and twining that it is can be off putting to members who REALLY do have a high fasting reading I know this because I had a spell where I was always in double figures and made me feel like being a failure If you inject insulin be it T1 or T2 and you drive a car then UK law is that at any time you drive you have to be 5.0 or above, lower than that then you are breaking the law So my message to everyone is whinge away when you are out of range but stop this ridiculous obsession with saying that being in the 5s is high, because being in the 5s is NOT HIGH Sorry for the rant but I feel better getting that off my chest I’m not singling any one person out it’s because I’ve seen numerous posters twining about their supposed high fasting sugars in the 5s If you are in the 5s be thankful I’ve just tested at 11.2 so maybe a little tetchy [/QUOTE]
