Ooo yikes! I completely understand that when it's in the 4's! My DN told me that 4's are fine as that is normal for a non diabetic but it can still make you feel icky. Take care of yourself today too hun x

Hiya, thanks for your reply :) not feeling 100% today I feel a bit icky. That's the only way to describe it really. Gliclazide seems to be a powerful drug lol. Was so annoyed I had a hypo as had done well for 2 weeks. I know it's my body and not me doing anything wrong though. Such a pain at...

Hiya, just wanted to say that I've been on gliclazide 4 weeks now. I used to be on metformin SR and I was so so scared to change as I knew there was a risk of hypos. My diabetic nurse would not let me start the new tablets until I had a blood testing machine. I did have a few hypos in the...

Good morning :) 4.1 this morning. Had a hypo of 3.8 at work last night. I've been on gliclazide 4 weeks now. Had lots of hypos in the beginning but my dose was lowered. That's my first hypo in 2 weeks. I normally don't feel them but did last night. Just feel so tired this morning.

Good morning:) 4.2 today x

Good morning:) 4.9 today

Hi everyone :) my BG was 4.2 when I woke up. I slept for 9 hours last night lol was so tired. I thought it would be high as I had a naughty treat last night before bed lol x

Hiya - I know this post is a few months old but just wanted to say I'm mody 1a too. So hard to find others lol :)

Good morning everyone :) how are we all? My BG was 4.6 when I woke up today. :)

Hi everyone :) it's breezy here in the east but the sun is out:)

Hi. Have you ever been tested for mody?

Sorry I meant a newbie to the site! But thank you :) I've recently had my tablet changed from metformin to gliclazide so I'm a newbie to that lol :) well done with your BG:)

Hi. Newbie here. 5.6 at 7am :)

Hi - so where are we all from? I'm in the UK, Cambridgeshire. Have only been on the site a few days :) x

Hi - I just wondered how many of us have been diagnosed with MODY? I'm 1A :)

Hiya - this is a question I have too as recently I've been put onto gliclazide. I'm only on 20mg 4 days a week at the moment thankfully. I weigh myself weekly and have only put on half a pound. I've been on it 3 weeks now :)

Happy birthday! :)

I think i was switched to gliclazide as I was told people with MODY respond better to a group of tablets which are called sulfonylurea. From what I've read, metformin isn't apart of this group and works completely differently. I suppose yes in the long run it will be better for me. I was first...

Hiya - just wanted to say this happened to me too. I was put on 40mg a day and had a lot of hypos dropping to the lowest of 3.3 (and I didn't feel anything!). Did your doctor lower your dose? My dose was halved as it was ridiculous the amount I was having to eat just so it didn't drop! It's...

When I was younger my BG was terrible as I didn't take my metformin and I ate what I wanted. Thankfully in recent years I changed that. My BG has been perfect recently but with MODY the doctors say the best treatment is gliclazide. Thankfully this is a low dose and working for now. I've been...
