Could you let us know what meds you are taking and what is your normal fasting blood glucose level?

 

[DannyS]

Not sure what my fasting levels are it is so long since I have taken them as I feel I have my diabetes under control. The med I take are Metformin 500mg (2 a day one breakfast time & one dinner time) Glimepride 2mg morning & Candersartan Cilexetil 8mg morning (the Candersartan is for blood pressure.

Would probably help to start testing again. I just find it all sneaks away out of control if I stop. But i am controlling with diet only.

Very easy thing to do ... do you use a daily chart to remind you? It's the only thing works for me

You could set an alarm on your phone? I do that for my evening dose as it’s one solitary pill so easy to forget. I remember the morning dose as I have other pills to take then

I always used to forget my meds. Am on several per day at different times. I now have a dose box which helps alot.
I would suggest you start testing again

I think that is ok. Mine would be high teens to mid 20 ‘s if I forgot my meds

Thanks for all the replys, yes I think I should resume testing.

Cheers Danny.
