Good morning to you all,

Can you help me with odd blood reading. I'm type 2 for 17 years I take Metformin, humulin at bedtime and Victoza of a morning.
I have recently had several instances when my blood 1st thing on a morning is as low as 5 but after have breakfast of weetabix or rice krispies when I test my blood 2 hours late it will have jumped to between 14-16
 
The weetabix and rice krispies are doing you no favours. Try full fat yogurt with berries or omlette. Bacon & eggs are good. No bread though.
 
Hi @johnr252003 you need to avoid or limit greatly the usual culprits for raising blood sugar - breakfast cereals, porridge, potatoes, pasta, rice, bread, pizza and flour based foods etc
