[QUOTE="EllieM, post: 2156475, member: 372717"] Hmm, several possibilities here 1) it's only a week, not really long enough to determine a long term trend? 2) Any illness or stress in your life will pump up glucose levels. (Steroids are notorious for this). 3) How confident are you that you're T2 rather than LADA/slow onset T1. Many many T1s/LADA are initially misdiagnosed as T2 and then rediagnosed as T1 after a couple of years. (Do you know if you ever had a c-peptide test? This would tell you how much insulin you produce- generally T2s start out high because of insulin resistance and T1/LADA start out low because their insulin producing cells are being destroyed. 4) sure your blood tsting strips are not out of date? Having said all that, I'd go back to point 1 - 1 week isn't really long enough to be concerned. Good luck [/QUOTE]
