[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 2114968, member: 85785"] I would speak to my GP again because it's the meds that is probably causing the hypos. The roller coaster ride of blood sugar levels, is similar to what happens when your initial insulin response is very weak, (hence the Gliptin) and the glicizide, which is supposed to lower blood sugar levels, but it is so erratic, no wonder you are getting symptoms. With these meds, you have to get the dosage right, with the amount of food you eat. If your dietary intake is too high in carbs and sugars, the meds can be either ineffective or too much. If your carbs, sugar is too low, your fat intake too low, it's the same, either ineffective or too much. Control is key to good management of your blood glucose levels. There is probably some foods that you should eat less of and why your control has got worse. What is your fasting levels? Do you keep a food diary? [/QUOTE]
