Diet Coke and Type 2

Hi Wendy, I find a restless night, particularly if my joints are bad puts my morning levels up. I'm convinced the systemic inflammation is to blame. It could be that if you're having joint problems.

I find a chilled glass of cold water before bed helps a little but Diet Coke has no effects on my levels generally (unless I have crisps with it! :D)
 
Lol that last bit about the crisps was so funny.... I think that might be a good reason to my high readings, as I have a failed back problem after 4 back ops which has left me in constant pain. Cannot do much of anything anymore except drink diet coke.....and a crisp or two:D:D
 
Hi Mike. I am not on metformin. I am on insulin and don't drive anymore.... if the question was for me...
No, Wendy, it was for celerie if you see the quote I was referring to in the post. Sorry for not making that clear.😳
