Hello Sally, The glucose numbers will always be erratic to some extent because there is no way that even three injections a day can regulate as well as when the pancreas is sensing glucose and dispensing insulin continually. Your measurement of 10 is about 180mg/dl in the states, which is not the worst for a diabetic. Even when totally fasting, the liver will sense the fast and in its panic, will release products into the blood that will raise the glucose level. Women will always have a tougher time with maintaining a steady glucose level due to the complexity of their hormones and cycles, which continue to vary, even beyond menopause. During mensis, blood glucose will be high and erratic. Being from Scotland, I believe your doctor can prescribe aminoguanidine hcl, which will help prevent damage called glycation that results from high blood glucose levels. It would do well to ask for it in order to defer diabetic neuropathy and retinitis. God bless,
