Hi,
My wife has recently been diagnosed and we are slightly confused with her readings which we are taking at home using finger prick tests.
History - her Hb1ac was quite high in Nov and since then it has come down in Jan . we are working towards lowering it further.
She had fasting readings of 6.6 to 6.8 but her post meal readings are been 14.5 to 14.7. They used to be higher earlier but are still high for our liking.
Question - She is on no medication and controlling her diet and exercising but her post meal readings are still not improving. Any suggestions / opinions on why that might be a case?
