[QUOTE="Daibell, post: 2304284, member: 21149"] Hi. From what you say, your highest priority is to reduce your excess weight and not match the carbs to your meds as that's never a good idea in principle. This means reducing the carbs in your diet. You can get 40mg Gliclazide tablets if you find 80mg is too high and causing hypos. If Gliclazide does cause hypos it implies you are T2 with working beta cells. I was on 320mg Gliclazide for a year or two with no effect or hypos before insulin which was a pointer to me being T1. Note that many NHS nurses are not fully aware of the latest diet advice so take account of that in your discussions. I'm lucky as my DN is excellent. [/QUOTE]
