Hi All,
I have searched the forum for some advice but to no avail, so thought I would ask the questions.
My normal after dinner readings are between 8 and 8.5. Not bad considering I was up to 28 eight weeks ago. However, I have noticed that my morning readings (taken 2 hours after breakfast) are between 11 and 12. I take Metformin 500mg (once during breakfast and once during dinner). I don't eat between dinner and breakfast. Normally I finish eating at around 9pm. I normally have breakfast between 7.30am and 8.30am. I am on 50g or less carbohydrates a day and never normally go over 10g for breakfast. I wonder if anyone could suggest why this happens. I know about the 'dawn phenomenon' but these high readings are after breakfast, so around 10:30ish.
Another question is regarding PDR. Has anyone else had the laser treatment and felt ill afterwards? I seem to have cold and flu like symptoms.
