Hi All,

After a relaxing (stress free) holiday i have finally go my blood sugars under a bit on control, 4.3 this morning, 7.2 before lunch - this is remarkable as they have been in the 20's and 30's over recent weeks :(

My question is, why do i still feel like ****, mainly tired and lathargic? My diet is much better and i have even started to exercise and drink water instead of juice and pop!!

Any ideas?

You don't want to rush the figures down.
And it takes a few weeks for your body to adjust to any change, so just give it more time, and you'll start to adapt to the new levels.

If you haven't been tested for Vitamin D3, worthwhile having it done as almost all Type 2's (especially if overweight) are deficient.

hi there i found that when you run high for a while then drop down to more a reasonable level it takes time for body to get use to it ,try not to get too hypo though as that stinks too,also on metformin it can make you b12 deficiant
