Right, a quick update. A breakfast of scrambled eggs and a lunch of bacon & sausage with a side of tomatoes, it was day one, sans carbs, so I thought I had better do my BGs. Now in all honesty my BGs are good anyway, mainly due to the meds I am on. This morning they were 4.6, getting no higher than 5.1, and in fact dropping to 3.5 at approx 3pm (which coincidentally now means I know what a hypo coming on feels like having never had one before) dealt with via a couple of apples. Was a bit apprehensive of going the gym after that, but went anyway, did my half hour cardio, checked again, and it was 3.8 :roll:
What do I do about my low BGs? I have an appointment on Friday with my GP, and so I am looking at cutting my Gliclazide from 1 tablet twice a day to half twice a day and then if things stabilise, ask him to keep me on this for a while, as the only other one I could reduce is the Actos, but Im a bit more wary of that one as it is that which got my BGs under control properly in the first place.
