We always joke that she's my "mini-me", but I don't want her to take after me with the big D!  I'm probably worrying for nothing right? |
hi ... dont worry.... always wash your hands before testing you bg.... never use alchol wipes..... remember when a diabetic eats any carbs.. the bg goes up and comes back down...it some times takes 3 hrs... always cover the carbs you are going to eat with insulin .... good luck... dont worry.. i have been a diabetic for over 46 years ,... since i was 13 years old. and i survived... got married had 2 children (who do not have diabetics_) but i always watch what i eat... never any pasta, pizza, potatochips, just the good carbs.. i am also eat only vegetables. no red meat... good luck.. but always keep calm.
