Hi all. I have my first 3 monthly diabetic review beginning of December. I’ve only been asked to bring a urine sample with me. Is it just a new set of bloods/urine/BP check?

Usually you should have feet checked as well and maybe a doppler check of ankle pulse. I would add if on Gliclazide it might be well to be a little carefull with your low carb experiment as Glic increases insulin output from pancreas and can cause hypoglicemic episodes so if going low carb I would advise you to check your blood sugars regularly to make sure you are not going too low.
