[QUOTE="Okjilly67, post: 2402250, member: 121827"] I realised today when checking my BS that my numbers have been gradually rising, during the first 3 months of having been diagnosed Type 2 I had managed to get them down to anything from 5 to 7.5, which DN said was excellent as I had been 24 previously. I’m on Metformin, started on 1 x 500 a day, and because my early morning test went up to 9 she decided to increase the dose to 3 x 100 a day. She also decided to increase my statin from 30 to 40 mg, as my cholesterol was over 6. Just looking back over my log book and realised I’ve had a slow and steady rise in BS. Averaging 6 to 8 since the Atorvastatin was increased. We do not have a dedicated DN at the practice at the moment, and GP telephone consults are few and far between. Wondered if anyone here had any comments to make? [/QUOTE]
