Hi all me again
Today was my first full day of meds of glic and metformin.
I was happy to see 2 hrs after food I was only 7.1 this is drastically lower than the original low 20s I was getting before meds. Then in the evening I decided that now I'm on meds surely a little bit of carbsor sugar would be ok??? Silly me I know ... so then I took about a mouthful maybe 50ml of chocs milk and I was over 10 straight away.. I'm shocked at how high this went up even after 4 hours from such a small amount of sugar even on meds I'm so worried I may end up on insulin like my grandmother when she was 40 as am I now?!
Also having constant dull headache since starting meds that will no go at all..
Any words of wisdom out there??? Not sure what to think of it all (and obviously learnt NOT to have any sneaky sips of sugary drinks again.)
