Thanks for the advice i think i will speak to my GP in the new year its getting me down now im continuously nausea and hardly eating anything im having diarrhoea every evening.

Ive been on metformin 4 weeks lots of side effects like nausea and diarrhoea my appetite is non existent my Bg is 4.7 today it used to be between 8 and 12 should I be worried?

Hi, I work in a GP surgery and they dont really do fasting bloods anymore.

Hi, I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes 2 years ago ive managed ok with just linagliptin but the last 2 weeks my bgt is no lower than 8 but more around 10/12 im experiencing symptoms like needing to wee more, always thirsty and now ive got thrush, not sure what to do, ive just had my annual...

Ive started it today and so far only had a bit of nausea.

Ive just been prescribed linagliptin for type 2 my Hba1c is 56 and i will probably be started on metformin too once it has been agreed by the diabetic clinic (i have an abnormal liver function) has anyone been prescribed this? How was it? X

8.3 fasting i think im going to have to be really strict i keep thinking this will go away !!

8.1 but was 15.0 yesterday 2 hours after eating

8.1 fasting but yesterday afternoon it was 15.0

Feeling really lethargic today not had lunch but tested my BGS as i feel so lousy and they are 9.3 dont want to eat as it will make them go even higher, advice please xx

I have fibromyalgia as well as type 2 diabetes its awful to be in so much pain I too went to a rheumatologist who diagnosed me then to the pain clinic where I was started on gabapentin and amitriptyline I'm also vitamin D deficient so am taking a supplement as well as propranolol for migraines...

7.3 feeling lousy with a thumping headache relatively new to this so not sure if it's my diabetes or fibromyalgia ??

8.3 not really been told what it should be?

Thanks that would be good I'm not very good at this. Currently I'm not taking meds for diabetes but I think that might change next week.

Thanks I will have a look x
