[QUOTE="Hiitsme, post: 1058542, member: 181310"] Hi [USER=244689]@TooManyCrisps[/USER] I'm not sure I am the best person to help you as my readings have been going up recently but I will try to answer your question. Started fasting readings about 2 weeks after diagnosis. Looking at my spreadsheet first week average about 10, second week average almost 12, then 9.5, 8.6, 8.4, 7.5, 6.1, 7.2, 5.7, 5.8, 5.5, 5.5, 6.2, 5.9 Then around that time I had my second HbA1c which was 50 and totally accepted by doctor and nurse that I did not need pills at that time. I was still having some spikes up to 9 or 10 after meals but not many, though lots in the 8's. So for me 3 months to get my readings down to an acceptable HbA1c for my GP but I was still not satisfied and wanted better. As you can see my averages go up and down, There are so many factors that affect blood sugar. Hope this helps you. [/QUOTE]
