[QUOTE="azure, post: 1385567, member: 39639"] [USER=378837]@sczaja[/USER] I couldn't recommend targets, not being a medical person, but the ones I gave above are pretty standard for the UK, I believe. I agree they do seem keen to get you on insulin before you trying to control your blood sugar by diet. It seems like they may have a lower fasting target than the UK. Prior to taking the insulin, did you do a nighttime test or two to check your blood sugar overnight? At least you have the consolation, they're taking good care of you and baby. And I too would prefer insulin to glibenclamide. I'm sure you've been warned about hypos, but it does no harm to mention it again. I suggest keeping hypo treatments by your bed, and also maybe doing a nighttime test to make sure the insulin isn't sending you too low. Let us know how you get on with the insulin : ) [/QUOTE]
