Hi, I’m pretty new to T2, I’m on Metformin and usually test 2 hours after new food just to see what it does to me. I’ve been really strict (perhaps too strict) and haven’t eaten or drank anything I shouldn’t over Christmas/Boxing Day. Usually I’m under 7 but the last two days I’ve been 7.9 and 8.9. It’s a bit of a kick in the stomach because I thought I’d been really controlled. My HbA1c is only just in the diabetic range (I was pre diabetic for 15 years but I kept it down with diet and exercise but I’m old and lazy now) so this result is high for me. I’m terrified about diabetes complications especially blindness as it’s unfortunately common in my family. Could it be the stress of Christmas or lack of sleep…. Thanks for reading
