Hi all.
I want to share something frustrating whilst celebrating at the same time.
I have been lchf since New Year's Day. My bs are monitored with 3 tests a day averagely. I've brought down levels significantly and lost 10lbs (whoop woop!)
However I stopped trajenta on 5/02/16 and closely monitored my bs. They remained low and stable. After 2 weeks I called by dn to just confirm this was all ok and whether my 2000mg of met should be looked at with these now lower levels. Now... Here's the frustrating part. She agreed to me stopping one of my mets then to go and see her with my records fairly soon. She also said that stopping trajenta was fine but as I'm not now prone to hypos my test strips will now not be on presc!! So annoying!!
I explained how I need to check the food that spikes me, she said sorry but that's not really what they are prescribed for!!!!
Aaaaargh.... So there we have it!
Oh and she also thinks I've become paranoid about bs and shouldn't test so much
