My bg level was 9.5 this morning - not happy with it but even cutting out all the carbs as well as all the sugars I can only get it down to 7........... feeling very disheartened with the situation, doctor doubled medication of metformin 2 months ago and still it is not dropping down. Had bloods done at hospital last week so will be going back to the doctors to get results soon. I would say this as well I am getting over a cold and over the past few months I have had a huge amount of stress - but my doctor will not agree that this makes a difference!

5.3 mmol. Happy with that, my target is to keep my BS under 5.5 mmol at all times.

Hi mine was 7.7 which has gone down from 11.8. I'm going on a sugar free diet to try and lose some weight.
Like your question and all the best. Mike.
