Personally, i think my GP think i am eating bad since they think my numbers wouldn't be high unless i was eating bad. understandable but, i have mentioned my meals to them and they said from what i have listed i shouldn't be going high at all. / and cheese and saturated fats she told me to cut...

my GP arranged for me to see a dietitian in the GP surgery. the advice she gave to me was avoid saturated fats/carbs. brown rice over white. carry on with the chapatti but chose wholemeal flour cut out cheese - the most worrying thing she said was have Weetabix for breakfast instead of eggs...

No I haven’t will try it tomorrow if it’s better than stomach

interesting.. i was just told as a type 2 i would need more insulin since i am insulin resistant. i know T1 like my uncle who use less insulin than i do.. both types are very different i am aware. my sugars just stay high regardless of the medicines and insulins. this is what i hope to...

no, when i was using novorapid i was starting on 10 units and then upping by 3 units every few days i eventually was taking like 45 units twice a day but no effect was happening with my blood sugar levels.

Yes only using the Long acting currently... in the past i was only on Fast acting called Novorapid which didn't help bring my levels down.

My insulin is called Toujeo 300units doublestar insulin Glargine.

Hi.. i was taking before 100units a day and wasn't working i am trying to up every 3 days and probably may be back to 100 units if not more.

i am happy your diabetes is managed well and your insulin treatment is working for you. :)

i am sorry to hear you aren't given a endo appointment just a gp appointment- my understanding was every diabetic was given a endo or maybe the people who aren't very well managed controlled. i am on Gliclizade and Sitagapliptin. along with the metformin and insulin. yes i am aware that...

I rarely get any support from my DN anymore. used to get weekly phone calls to check up on the insulin and sugar control. and that has stopped for a while now. don't know why, maybe due to what is going on with the pay or maybe less staff< was put on insulin and haven't had my phone call to...

Hi Y'all hope everyone is doing well. i have my appointment with the DN - she checked everything and asked me a few questions and then prescribed me insulin Glargine which is a long acting insulin, - 14 units, i will get phone call on Monday to see if my levels have improved and whether to...

Hi i appreciate your message. i have been on gliclazide for many years also. I will give it another go and see if it can help me now or never since i feel so bad and i know its due to constant high blood sugar for many months and years. all my friends and family think how isn't he in a coma yet...

i am aware that bad control the 17 was my breakfast 2 hours after. but, my morning level was 13.8, so i know thats only 3.2 increase which isn't good. my breakfast wasn't to heavy. and the 7.5 was just fasting straight after breakfast no snacking just drinking water. i am sitting at 14 right...

for example today my highest was level was 17. and lowest 7.5, so, i know to some degree the fasting is helping bring down my levels and the medicine too, but it isn't at the same rate as it once was, i remember taking gliclizide and metformin and my levels were down within 45min, now it takes...
