I'...I've been diabetic for over 11 years... I'm used to the pricking and take insulin and pills. BS #s are occassionally normal. I just tell everyone that I'm extra sweet... nobody believes me, though.<br />I don't carry the meter everywhere. Just take your numbers in different situations for a while, to see how different things affect you. Eat right, and if you feel sweaty, dizzy and tired EAT SOMETHING! (That is the best thing about being diabetic, they want you to eat!)<br />Best thing I learned was to eat protien with your charbohydrates - every time. The protein helps the charbs to digest more slowly so there are no spikes in the #s. Keep away from stress... that can make your #s jump, too. I went to lots of classes.<br /><3 TerriTerrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08927552672720816359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3279282175595555144.post-52499982621934477842010-11-03T14:32:16.797+01:002010-11-03T14:32:16.797+01:00I just found out 3 weeks ago that I am diabetic.

My vision was very blurry after getting new glasses, they were great at first but after about a month I convinced myself the optometrist had made a terrible mistake. To my shock my vision had changed 60% in a month, he sent me right to my dr. my blood sugar was 432! They started me right away on metformin which has already had to be doubled. I have had a diabetes survival class with meal planning. My #'s are getting better too. One of my first thoughts was to make a really cute little case for my meter, but havent done that yet. Maybe we should start a blood sugar case challenge!!! I would not know how to do that, do you???<br />Best of luck with your blood sugar, I know the hand of God sent me with blurry vision to the eye Dr and then to family Dr. My A1C was 10.7 really scary!<br />My this was long! <br />Happy Quilting<br />ColleenColleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04828644247641415973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3279282175595555144.post-39369878991593925092010-11-03T13:27:00.596+01:002010-11-03T13:27:00.596+01:00welcome to the club...
