[QUOTE="ZoeDingwall, post: 1469379, member: 402473"] Aah thanks so much for your reply ☺️ I'm not on any medication at all, GP has mentioned starting metformin when I next see him, but wanted to test my kidney function first (I only have one) so that's why the week wait between diagnosis and starting any medication. I thought I'd get right on the ball in the meantime! I'm using a similar app to My Fitness Pal to log all my food and even drinks too. No correlation food wise at the moment, but then it's only been a couple of days this has been happening. It's has been mid afternoon each time though after a low carb lunch. To raise it, the first time my husband was eating oatcakes - so I scoffed one it didn't bring me up much but got me back into the mid 4 range. Today I had a handful of walnuts which had a similar effect. I didn't think it wise to go sugary as I thought that may send me in the wrong direction! I'll speak to the GP on Tuesday and if he's not very forthcoming I'll ask to see my nurse again. In the meantime I guess it's just monitor closely and see! Thanks for your reply, much appreciated [/QUOTE]
