I'm so cross with myself - I can't believe I was so stupid
I took the advice of my practice nurse / PCT and stopped self testing
I was ambling along quite nicely with my morning tests in the mid 6.x was on a 'maintenance' dose of 2 x metformin (plus the recently introduced statins, - despite not knowingly having had a cholesterol test)
so I stopped testing - for about 6 months
Now I'm due a review / fasting test and my recent morning readings have been 7.4, 7.4, 7.4, 8.9, 7.4 . I took my eye off the ball and disconnected from managing my condition.
These readings are as a result of me trying to get back in the game and as a result I have upped my dose back to 3 x daily - heaven only knows what my hba1c average is going to be :thumbdown:
To be honest, I'm not certain I want to find out
if anyone needs me, I'll be under a rock
