Hello, I joined under a different username years ago, had to re-register. 79 year old man diagnosed with Type 2 15 years ago, A1C in range, last fasting BG 116. Bothered by dry throat and dry cough. Drinking 3-4 liters of water a day helps, always a bottle by the bed, always a bottle in the car. Google searches say that this is common with diabetes, elevated BG causes dryness and thirst along with frequent urination. Just wondering what experience others have had. Thanks, MikeinMX Metformin ER 500x2, Jardiance 12.5, Losartan 25
Just a side comment, my bg meter uses mg/l. Apparently 116mg/L converts to about 6.5 mmol/L
