I was told in March when hospitalised with sepsis and DKA, I am currently on 2x metformin twice day and 2 80mg gliclazed half hour before breakfast.
I have a UTI and on antibiotics and my BG just keeps getting higher! My waking BG is 15-18 and my pre-lunch was 30.3mmol there is no change to my steroids atm, I am fairly sure I read somewhere that illness can cause increase in BG other than that I still feel ok. Specialist nurse is due to ring next week I honestly have no idea what to do, I’m aneamic which makes my A1c ‘off’ but it’s creeping up, I’ve gone from 33 to 47 in 3 months, short of not eating at all I’m lost, I asked for the c-?? test which they may do, my GP says my A1c is too low to even be on meds (not helpful) I’m doing close to keto diet as I can but less than 20 a day, I’ve tried fasting days and just nothing helps. When do I say enough? No one seems to help (ketones were .3 earlier)
