[QUOTE="daisyduck, post: 1370216, member: 5016"] Metformin does not agree with me so I manage to keep my levels between 5 and 7 on diet alone. The overnight liver dump messes that up by usually providing me with 7.5 in the morning. :P Hubby injects insulin twice a day so we have to make sure he doesn't go too low. I usually add a potato or bread to his meals... but.. if he does eat the same as me, he has to drop his insulin dose by several points. He had never been advised by his GP to do that though and I asked him to check with his DN at the last appointment if this was an Ok thing to do.. She was pleased with his levels and said to keep doing whatever he was doing :) [/QUOTE]
