[QUOTE="pleinster, post: 1135021, member: 221545"] Hey Bytor, don't be too freaked out by it all. My levels were very similar as was my medication...got Type 2 from steroids post transplant. My readings gradually dropped and dropped not through the meds or not eating sugar..and I am way to lazy to physically exercise (but I am at least not overweight)...but by eating a low carb diet (ie. nothing with more than 10g carbohydrate per 100g - okay, I'm lying - I have an ice lolly every day..okay maybe 2), by recording what I ate, when I ate it, and readings on my meter before and 2.5 hours after eating...by drinking plenty of fluid. The more it improved, it was clear the Gliclazide was doing very little - so I stopped (months ago now) - levels are now generally non-diabetic. it's do-able...so I'm sure you'll beat the bejeezus out of this snow dog if you use the right approach. Explore the site and look particularly at the low carb forum. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
