[QUOTE="Roryj96, post: 2225541, member: 518521"] I got told off for purchasing my own glucose monitor after being diagnosed with type 2 back in December 2017, told me I was wasting my money and it wasn’t needed. Fast forward to February 2020 and I’m now under the hospital diabetic team being treated as Type one on insulin. But I ended up on 2G metformin, 160mg glicazide and 25mg alogliptin every since drug lowered my HBA1C for the 3 months and then a few weeks to a month after being told I was in a healthy range I ended up testing in the high 20+ mmol insisted in another blood test and every single time it come back 20 points out of range so another drug until they put me on the three I mentioned above then finally referred me to the hospital team. It’s been a nightmare [/QUOTE]
