Hi I am finding conflicting information on the highest dose of ozempic allowed for diabetes control. Is it 1mg or has it now been licensed for upto 2mg? Also has anyone switched from ozempic to rybelsus and got better results.

Has anyone been prescribed this for T2 diabetes in UK? If so did anyone swap from ozempic? If not does anyone know if it is definitely available for T2 in UK as I can't get hold of ozempic and really don't want to go back on insulin. Victoza etc didn't work for me.

Hi Last night I was naughty and after a steak, salad and jacket potato I had a gluten free cup cake (it wasn't worth it - my mind had built it up to be something it could never be :( ). My BG level went up to 8.6 which I expected but when I got up this morning I was showing 10.2. I thought...

Hi The practice nurse has advised me to eat as a minimum every 4 hours - I have a significant amount of weight to lose and tend to find that the 4 hours don't fit with meal times so I have a snack. OK when I'm at home but on holiday at the moment and the best I can find are carb heavy so the...

Hi I'm a new type 2 and low carbing. I took a reading of 6.7 before a half hour dog walk and then tested again - 8.3 - I thought exercise was supposed to reduce blood sugar levels? Very confused Cath Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

Does anyone else get a feeling of flies crawling on their legs when they're not? If so is it related to diabetes? Cath Sent from the Diabetes Forum App
