That's a very good price 🙂
 
Hi Mark,
I've been diagnosed with type 2 this evening. My doctor has prescribed medication and actually gave me a BG meter! Aren't I Lucky! Tested my blood in surgery and it was 6.9. Then i tested it again after tea and it was 10.8. Hopefully will understand this new world soon.
Regards.
 
Well you did better than me in the surgery. I measured 12.9😱. Great you got a meter. I had to buy mine. It's daunting at first but you will soon be able to find out what you can and can't eat. Personally, I'm staying away from carbs. These are the worst culprits for raising BS. Tonight I had courgetti for the first time and it was amazing. Eveyone is great on this forum so anything you need to know, just ask🙂. I'm not the expert though, I'm New too:D.
