Susie darlin' as you know I too am diabetic, but yet I eat cakes, biscuits, sweets, choccie biscuits, sweet puddings and all. My Doctors have prescribed
METFORMIN for me and providing I take that regularly (every night) I'm fine. When I was first diagnosed I did ask about a home blood-sugar testing kit, but Doctor said no and wouldn't sanction the test strips, which apparently are fiercely expensive, so I have no idea how high or low my blood sugars levels are, apart from a yearly diabetic check. The last one was a few weeks ago and apparently my blood sugar reading was 42 (whatever that means).
