[QUOTE="lovinglife, post: 2111303, member: 22428"] With advice from my diabetes nurse I dropped my gliclizide because I wanted to get off the meds that cause hypos and get down to just metformin, but I also dropped my carbs quite a bit too. I was low carb at 70g carb a day no more than 15g a meal from veggies, a couple of small new potatoes and the odd slice of low carb bread whilst on the gliclizide I now do LCHF lifestyle with no more than 20g carb a day and a top meal limit of 7g (though I don't always manage to stay under the meal limit I do keep under the daily limit) My Hba1C is the same but my daily testing numbers before and after meals are much smoother without much of a rise - usually between 4.5 and 6. Maybe with a bit of tweaking and a look at reducing the amount of carbs will help your hubby lower his numbers without having to go back on the gliclizide:) [/QUOTE]
