@nicki_noodle I read your previous posts. You stated your initial fasting blood glucose levels were 12 mmol/L (216 mg/dL) and 16 mmol/L (288 mg/dL), also that you were started on metformin.
It's good that you've gotten a blood glucose meter. At least now you can link how you're feeling to an actual blood glucose level.
I'm curious. How much metformin are you taking per dose? And when are you taking each dose? Perhaps others with experience with metformin could share their experiences when they have more information from you.
When I was re-diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, I also started the low carb high fat diet (but I declined medication). The first week my highest blood glucose level was 16.5 mmol/L (297 mg/dL), my lowest was 8.1 mmol/L (145 mg/dL). I just checked, and my lowest blood glucose level of 5.2 mmol/L (93 mg/dL) happened about six and a half weeks into the low carbohydrate diet.
Today, 16 months into the low carbohydrate diet, I'm getting more blood glucose levels in the 4.7 - 5 mmol/L (85 - 90 mg/dL) range but not as often as I'd like. And happily it doesn't cause me any discomfort.
I'm wondering if they could reduce your medication dosage (or if you could increase your carbohydrate intake). I realize low blood glucose levels are desired, but too low can cause you to lose consciousness, not good. Do talk with your medication prescriber.
