[QUOTE="carlrr, post: 369145, member: 65650"] Thanks Anna I am contemplating going to A&E to push the insulin issue, unless I wait for Friday and see what they say I am under the impression that you can use insulin with the meds and then come off the insulin and manage with meds when your levels are down I think general readings of 13.5 to 15.9 are to high and spikes in the 21 - 26 are damaging My diet is pretty much ok and the carbs are non existent, if I raised them slightly now my BG would go up However the nurse said they don't want to drop it to quick in case of permanent damage to the eyes but then leaving it high over a period of time is damaging. surely the expertise is there to drop it quicker but slowly, at least to under 10 using lower doses of insulin Or will it make it worse? I am trying to research but I cant bloody read properly [/QUOTE]
