[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 1625227, member: 21149"] Hi and welcome. A few points. The HBa1C is non-fasting which avoids getting up early! Your DN sounds good. Statins are typically offered without reference to your lipids breakdown which is wrong. Looks like your DN may have looked at those results and the ratios. Always check your blood pressure at home with your own device and give the DN a collection of the results which she will average and enter into the system. Thru this I was able to stop my Ramipril. Yes, don't drink full bottles of Lucozade or any glucose unless on insulin or Gliclazide. These can cause low blood sugar and that's when glucose can help bring BS back up. Yes, go for the low-carb diet (you do have a good DN) and forget calories as they are of no use to us; just think carbs and have enough proteins and fats to keep you feeling full. Metformin is a good safe drug but doesn't have that much effect on blood sugar; diet is the key if T2. [/QUOTE]
