Hello! It's been a very long time since I was a regular on here! Since being diagnosed Type 2, eight years ago, I've gone through most of the ups and downs that we all experience. I've been fanatical about my diabetes control and I've also had tough times in life when I've just given in and let my control slip.
I need to reconnect to tighter control again - current HbA1c is 6.7 or 50 - and I would like to come off the Metformin which I've only been taking properly for a year. My cholesterol is too high at 5.3 so that also needs work again.
I'd like to get a new meter and I'd be interested if any of you could recommend a good one - and why you like it. My old meter is a bit knocked about and probably very out of date. (One Touch - Select Plus).
Thanks very much.
