I've just ordered a Dexcom One with 10 days' monitoring. I'll see if this helps as my BG is way too high (8-9.5 when I wake up and rarely seems to go below 6.9 or so even if I eat nothing all day). I did notice this morning that a double espresso caused a spike even an hour later. I came off...

I am inspired by your success at reversing T2 after coming off Metformin. I stopped taking MF just over a month ago as I felt awful and couldn't think straight (I'm a writer). I feel so much better, but have FBG of 9.2 (it was 8.5-ish anyway even with 1000 mg Metformin). When I monitor BG during...

Mine's been going up from 6.2 before Christmas. I had a break (no testing strips) and it was 7.2 this morning. It went down to 6.3 after 2 hours though.
