[QUOTE="debs248, post: 2760560, member: 597976"] Oh if only I'd seen a nurse maybe I wouldn't have these problems! (Sorry, very frustrated that I have been dealing with bureaucracy and poorly trained people all week) I *might* get to see one on Friday but I'm not getting my hopes up. GP surgery's online system pretty **** and can't face ringing them today as I need to eat and order supermarket delivery as well. I decided to risk adding the 2nd dose this morning despite no testing - hubby kindly volunteered to get up early and fry eggs :happy: (Side question, I've not been given any guidance as to what is in the meal I take with gliclazide, how does it prevent hypos if there are no carbs?) No obvious symptoms/ side effects so far, I did manage to get a blood drop from a finger pad 7 hours after taking gliclazide with BG 15.3 so probably nowhere near hypo levels in the meantime! I thought I needed to space the doses out by 10-12 hours, 8 sounds far more doable, thanks! [/QUOTE]
