Hi,
I haven't posted for a while . I had a series of mini strokes ( TIA ) in July 2012 , then had a proper stroke at the end of July 2012 , it wasn't a huge stroke but enough to knock me sideways ( the left side
) .
Before my stroke my BS levels had been pretty good generally between 5 and 7 mml , since my stroke Im struggling to control my BS levels , if I eat very little I can get it down to around 10 , if I work to my pre stroke food levels its around 14 mml .
I have struggled for months but I think I'm going to have to visit the GP - I have been trying to avoid the GP after my many , many visits last year .
I think it may be the blood pressure meds - Amlodipine - has anyone got experience of this med ?
thanks
