    Type 2's: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning?

    Re: Type 2's : What was your fasting blood glucose in a morn 5.3 this morning. Had a bit of a naughty day yesterday! Had a bacon butty at a Little Chef then an apple pie at McDonalds (and a few fries). Why don't McD do decaf coffee? What makes you think I had my grandson with me! Usually find...

    Re: Type 2's : What was your fasting blood glucose in a morn A very happy 5.4 this morning. I decided to try and wean myself off the glic and yesterday was my first day without any at all. Just hope I can maintain it!!!

    Type 2's: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning?

    Re: Type 2's : What was your fasting blood glucose in a morn Unbelievably I had a 6.9 this morning. Only thing I can think of is that I had a small carby snack before bed and even tho I thought it was 'small' - it obviously wasn't!!

    Q for long term Metformin users

    Hi Hana. I have often wondered the same thing myself as I have been on Met for eleven years now. Never had any of the side effects either! I was on Met plus 80mg of glic (twice a day) until Christmas when GP cut the glic to 40mg twice a day. So, as you say, just how much does the Met add to my...

    Type 2's: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning?

    Re: Type 2's : What was your fasting blood glucose in a morn 5.2 today. Which is ok considering that, for various reasons, I had only half my meds (one glic, two met) yesterday.

    Type 2's: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning?

    Re: Type 2's : What was your fasting blood glucose in a morn 5.6 this morning. Must admit I've always wondered about DP. I don't know enough - despite extensive reading and testing!! My morning BS is higher than when I go to bed - but is this DP or just a 'rebound' from having been low...

    Type 2's: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning?

    Re: Type 2's : What was your fasting blood glucose in a morn 5.7 today. Went to Morrisons for tea last night and had a very good ham salad. BUT they were seducing the price of their cakes down to 49p. So - as I am back on the treadmill - I bought one. OMG it was divine. Problem later was that...

    Type 2's: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning?

    Re: Type 2's : What was your fasting blood glucose in a morn 5.7 this morning. Actually thought it might have been lower than that as I started on the treadmill again yesterday. Paul - just a bog-standard T2. Diagnosed 11 years ago with a fasting BS of 24. Had put 10st on prior to diagnosis...

    Type 2's: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning?

    Re: Type 2's : What was your fasting blood glucose in a morn Hi Paul. Do all this on my phone so can't do the 'quote' bit. Sorry. Yes, I've just started doing my BS just before I go to bed. No specific reason for it as such - I've seen other people quote their 'pre-sleep' levels and wondered...

    Re: Type 2's : What was your fasting blood glucose in a morn Had a naughty few days so having to get back on track. So another 'new' start - 6.2. Not bad all things considered.
