Am in hols and sugars are up on usual namely due to diet. Realised today maybe I could go back to 10mg for couple days till I get home to just get more sugar out of me. Is it as simple as 2 of my 5mg or is it far more complicated and dangerous to double up? I woke up on an 8 today so just doesn’t feel like they are hitting nail on the head. To be fair am going home tomorrow so can get back to normal diet and get things even keel again
