[QUOTE="paulinderby, post: 1877064, member: 291741"] Thanks Alexandra thats very useful. Very rarely do I eat a meal after 7:30pm and usualy in bed for 10:30 - 11:00. Had a 9 before breakfast this morning and down to 4.6 before lunch at 1pm. Breakfast was 1 slice of seeded wholemeal toast with marmite and a glass of very diluted fresh orange juice. Had 20 mins quick paced walk about 8:30. Lunch was tin of tuna in spring water with salad not tested since ( tut tut) dinner was fried (veggie oil) pork strips and veg, no potatoes Just tested now and bg is 7.7, w and a half hours after eating. I am not totally against taking Metformin but to my mind it is good to know how meal times etc. affect bg before jumping in. It was my doc who prescribed Metformin by DN said she wouldnt have done (Hba1c at last test was 62 or 7.8 in old money). Really appreciate your advice and will increase my testing. Thank you.
