  • Hi, all. Rosey - umm all that salmon. I'm jealous. You should be able to get back on track if you eat the catch. I'm no one to lecture on being op since I haven't been for awhile. Just got back from the endo. My sugars are 5.7 (good) but my triglycerides went up. Oops.
    BB welcome to the thread. I take a Centrum silver daily. I chose Centrum because a study showed that it was one of the top brands to actually contain what it says it contains. Hope this helps.
  • ty rose but do it have side affects? and do it help with ur diet?
  • There are no negative side effects to multi vitamins (unless you take a whole bottle at once lol). It gives you the minimum daily nutrients that you might not get from what you eat.
  • ok ty rose
  • Happy weekend everyone..its so pretty out this am and nice and cool so far ((((hugs)))) rosey
  • Hello!

    Well back in April there was a possiblilty I was a type II diabetic, it didn't really come as a shock because of my weight, two fasting blood test showed my glucose to be a little high. I had to book an appointment for the GTT but here in the UK there is a wait and it's not till the end of August, but it's not long off now.

    In the mean time in the past couple of days I have bought a blood glucose monitor as they where on offer at the chemist and have been doing regular checks thoughout the day, and it does indicate I am diabetic...

    I guess now I am just waiting till the official yes or no which I should get the first week of September...

    I even made some changes to my diet and cut out sugar from April but it don't seem to have worked
  • Hi mazarin..you probably need medication to lower your sugars only the dr can help you there..in the mean time..try counting carbohydrates as they turn to sugar and we need to limit them too..im rosey from alaska and been diebetic for several yrs now..also exercise if you can as that helps too..ask questions research on your computer.. every one is diff tho so what works for me might not for you.. welcome to our group tho and good luck.. hi to every one else ihave a house full of grandkids this week..and im a happy camper ((((hugs)))) rosey
