Alcohol...
Wow there's alot of misleading info about this on the Internet! I want answers from people who have experienced these things not people who THINK they know having studied biology at high school!!!
I drink very little and often go months without a drink. Yesterday I decided to have a drink for the first time since diagnosis and so I had a 2 JD and diet cokes and a mouthful or two of wine. I didn't finish the wine because I checked my bg and it was just over 10.
Now I did have a carb full dinner earlier but my numbers have generally been about 7ish before bed so I think the alcohol is doing something to me. Having discussed with the nurse and reading some websites I expected downwards movement of my bg but that didn't happen.
If anyone has experienced anything like this I would love to hear from you. Maybe what I drank is the issue (please don't say it's JD...it's my favourite!)
Thanks in advance
