Received my new One touch verio IQ a couple of weeks ago. Very impressed with it. Easy to use quality bit of kit, very impressive software. GP very helpful with prescription changes for new strips and lancets.

Has anyone taken up the offer of this free meter. If so how long did it take to arrive? I am still waiting for mine :-( and is it worth waiting for?

Off on a carb counting course tomorrow. Not sure what to expect.

Welcome to the forum. Iam new here too and have found the forum informative and welcoming.

Booked in for a "Carb Counting Course" on 10th March ;)

6.9 here. I was bad last night and had pancakes.

Yes metformin twice a day & gliclazide one in the morning.

I am on 22 units and seem to be quite settled at that, I was 6.2 this morning. I am attending a carb counting course on 10th March and after that will be adding rapid action insulin to my regime. That will require adjusting my Lantus downwards and injecting rapid action at mealtimes, meaning...

No I havnt had any. I always check my levels before going to bed. Have you?

6.6 this morning. Still peaking after meals during the day but 20 units of Lantus seems to be working well as a base dose. :-)

Yes thank you. Feeling better than I have for the best part of 2 years. 6.2 this morning :-)

My regime has been to increase by 2 units every four days until I get under 7 with my morning test. Am up to 20 units now and was 7.2 this morning.

Hi meggie it will be interesting to compair notes. I am upto 20 units of lantus now and that elusive morning 7 is still not there yet.

Trying hard with the diet and insulin, but its all a bit scary.

All well at the health centre. Gradually increasing insulin, up to 20 units today.
