CGM

Someone on here mentioned a trial which is free of an abbot freestyle.
Wow, wow, wow. I think all type 2's should be given a trial, it would save so much money.
However question, I've been type 2 for so long now, but even with meters never got proper control. So since using the cgm, I'm now eating less than 10g of carbs, skipping breakfast (never ate it anyway). Swinging my kettle bell, like a good un. Weights too. So my average readings are between 4 and 5.6. Should I be worried? I'm on jardiance and alogliptin which I've only been on a month due to my last high readings.

Noting that we cannot diagnose or give medical advice.

You seem to be doing well.
What are you worried abut, specifically?

I use the Libre2+ as the voice of my conscience but don't always listen as much as I should.

Probably a good idea to share your new numbers with your health care team.
If you have good numbers, and were put on extra drugs because you had bad numbers, then there might be a chance to reduce your medication.

Well done, you!

I think I was worried because it was such a drastic reduction especially in a short time, less than 2 weeks, Thanks for the congrats though.

Well done again.

Any radical change in BG management should always be shared by your medical team so that they can review your medication.
You don't want to be taking medication if it is no longer required.
