Hi everyone.
I have been on 4X 500g of metformin for about 6 months now and about a month ago was prescribed diamicron XR (glicazade). The endo told me to start with one tablet for 2 weeks and if my readings were too high to double the dose. I have done this (for 2 1/2 weeks now)and have found that there has not been any change in my BGLs. My fasting BGL is anywhere between 9 and 13, and through the day the same. He said that I should aim for between 4 and 6.I am low carbing and getting very frustrated. How long before I will detect any changes? I see my endo at the end of the month. Any advice would be greatly recieved.
Thanks for listening!!
