paula 4 Posted March 20, 2006 me neither. I think Wheetsin lied. (LOL) Have you had any more problems? Just wondering, think it has to do with what we eat the day before - then the nighttime fasting - then the sweet (delish) morning coffee. Lastnight I had a salad for supper, then a low carb yogurt for dessert. This morning, after my coffee rush, I had NO problems. No drop in B/S. hmmmm, its got me thinkin'!

I think I will monitor this more closely and kind of do my own little experiment. Guess we'll see what I find. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nanahanna 1 Posted March 20, 2006 Many blood sugar monitors are not expensive. When I was diagnosed as diabetic I got one free at Walgreens. I now have two or three of them. The last one my daughter got off ebay, band new with lancets (for sticking your finger and strips to put the blood on for about $30. I have seen them at Walmart for about $20. I think the last one I bought was about $37 at Walmart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nightingale2u 42 Posted March 20, 2006 Wow Sharon... I didn't realize they had become so affordable! I may just have to check into getting one! Thanks for the infromation! Paula... I didn't have the problem all weekend... but then again... I held off until later in the morning for Breakfast most of the time as we were up at the cabin. It's funny... we don't have running Water or sewer at our cabin... BUT... there is electricity and a very nice coffee maker...lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nanahanna 1 Posted March 20, 2006 You are welcome Darcy. Check ebay for sure....I remember seeing some on there that were brand new for under $20. Of course if you were a brittle diabetic I would suggest one of the very best ones, but my Walgreens brand freebie worked great for about 4 years! I still have it and use it from time to time but I have the newer one that gives results in 5 seconds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nightingale2u 42 Posted March 21, 2006 Well... I would actually trade the coffee maker for a potty and a shower... but since that isn't in the budget I guess a coffee maker will do! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
