Lower Blood Sugar Levels
I have been enjoying life meaning eating everything mostly on weekends. i just started after a month taking my blood sugar level and t was about 225. that put me in a watch mode. So I have been eating low carbs and exercising a lot. I cannot get to below 150. My test strips were expired so can my test meter be too old now after 3 years? Or my sugar was too high and it takes time for it to level off.
An just to add - Don't wait to get to the doctor and get on some meds. I went undiagnosed for years until I went to the doctor for tingling/burning in my feet. I now struggle with neuropathy… read more
