Hi, I'm 34 female overweight and I was diagnosed with type 2 last November. I had a fasting bg of 12 - they told me to lose some weight get more exercise. I lost 22kg. I went back for my review last Monday and had a bg of 33 - my hb1c test came back at 104. I have been referred to hospital got to test my bg and key tones 4 times daily. Ive been prescribed 1000mg metformin and 4mg glimepiride my bg was 19.1 this morning before breakfast with keytone of 0.9 I called the nurse and she said to take another 2g of the glimepiride test before lunch was 20.3 and keytone 0.2 so at least that came down. I'm just worried the bg is still high - will they just keep upping the medication at what point does it change to injections ?? I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed at the moment. Have thrush in my mouth a stinking cold and very weepy. I'm scared of needles. If anyone has time to talk to me I would be most greatful
