    Type 2 Can't sleep

    Spl@ Yes, I've had two changes in medication so that could be it. I now take Gliclazide instead of Merformin as it kept me on the loo most of the day & replaced Warfarin with Rivaoxaban, so this may be why. Thanks, I'll ask my GP. All the best for Christmas & the Newyear to you & your family...

How many carbs drop do you...

    Type 2 Gliclazide been put on this after Metformin

    I do have a bottle of red wine mpst weekends but my doctor said Hi, I have been on 70g carbs a day. The leaflet in the Gliclzide box stated to eat sugar & carbs if I go low, not the doctor.

    Type 2 Gliclazide been put on this after Metformin

    Hi there, Thanks for you advice here. The info with the Gliclazide say I should take biscuits & lump sugar with me if I do some gym visits incase I start to go low. Also to eat carb food. Does this make sence to you? Thanks Squeekyboy...steve
