[QUOTE="janice1956, post: 953429, member: 200728"] I know the felling well T2 with Coeliac so very confused how to get the BG down. Diagnosed 5 years ago been on metformin both normal and SR but without much success, also had the dreaded met bum on both. Taken off Metformin a month ago and put on Gliclazide 40mg morning and evening. I am disabled so can't do much exercise hence now gained 10lb and still getting BG reading of 13 in the afternoon. Doc then suggested Sitagliptin which gave me to go with the Glic but the side effects off the Sitagliptin were so bad I returned to the GP and he said to stop them. He upped the Glic to 80mg in the morning and 40 mg in the evening and I have still not had a fasting BG under 8. I don't eat that much in the way of bread as the gluten free stuff is not that nice. I do like potatoes but on eat 4 really small new potatoes of a bit of mash. Can't eat normal cereals only gluten free one's about twice a week then I get really high numbers. Any suggestions from any coeliac/T2 sufferers would be greatly appreciated. HBa1C 48 (probably higher now) Chol 4.4 CKD Stage 3 [/QUOTE]
