Hi all.
Looking for advice.
I started a VLCD 3 weeks ago with support from GP. He has been great.
When I started he took me off the Glimeperimide so no fear of hypo, also took me off my Jardiance as he voiced concern at possibility of DKA.
I had been checking keytones and they show I am in Ketosis and I feel very well.
I have lost 10lbs and my BG has drastically reduced in last week which is good. My eyes are also much better.
I am keeping a BG record for the GP....he gave me tons of strips so that even though I am on NIL meds I can show him progress in 1 months time.
However, before tea (meal replacement) today when I took my BG it was 4.5. Now I haven't seen that in months. I feel fine but am worried about hypos? Surely I shouldn't have any?
Any advice would be appreciated as I am chuffed but startled at the same time!
Thanks, Chris
