Hi, newly t2 only 3 days ago. So, I thought I'd change from white to wholemeal bread. This morning was 8.5, have had toast, salad sandwich, banana sandwich and a couple of apples. Tonight 11.3!!!!!!!! Taking metformin. Why has my blood sugar gone up? I'm new to this......HELP!!!!!
Hi - you're best starting a new thread to ask questions but in a word, you're eating high sugar (bananas and apples) and carbohydrate food (bread) which will raise your levels. Reduce consumption of these and you should see an improvement.

Good luck, Robbity
