I'm presuming type 2, Bob, as long as you are careful and occasionally give yourself a treat of Toblerone and reduce some other equivalent carbohydrate intake you should be OK.
Sorry to hear that Bawbee, being rather partial to chocolate myself I can sympathise with you. Hopefully you'll be able to have the odd treat now and then though.
Thanks for your concerns guys. It is type 2 Ron and, as far as I know, it's not as bad as type 1. I suppose getting older does not come without some parts failing and others wearing away.
The doctor told me the day before we left on holiday and I was good for two whole weeks - truly.
I am supposed to have read up some info at Diabetes UK but I'll do it at the weekend. I have to have my eyes scanned on Monday morning and see the doctor in the afternoon - a whole day off work (expensive thing this diabetes).
