[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 2228362, member: 355878"] I'd say go for low carb at once - with a Hba1c so high, anything you can do to get back to normal numbers has to be a good thing - if your HCPs become bewildered by your results well they would not be the first ones and it will probably do them good. One can but hope. At least you have a meter, so you can see if the lower carbs is being effective day by day - though testing before meals is of little use if you need to see the consequences of eating - maybe if you get hold of a cheap to run meter and check that it reads the same as the one prescribed, then you can use their meter for before and your own for after. Eating low carb, if you are actually type two, and lucky, can cause blood glucose to fall into single figures very quickly, and then go on down to normal. [/QUOTE]
