It is comforting to know that you all have offered something that my own GP seems unable to offer and that is, advice. I believe that I have lost count of the number of times that I have voiced concerns over my bloods. I take 1 x gliclazide (30mg), 1 x Aspiring (75mg), 1 x Metformin (500mg), 1 x Ramipril (5mg) and 1 x Candesartan (4mg) first thing in the morning. At anbout 5pm I then take another metformin (500mg) and just before bed take a simvastatin (40mg). This has been my daily routine for the last six months. I do eat breakfast however I have also been known to miss this due to other committments. I have what I consider to be a fairly balanced diet but should always eat more vegetables. I eat fruit as often as I can. I do have a stessful job as I run my own company with my wife from home and to add to that we have six children to tend for although two have grown an one has now moved out and the other is off to uni very shortly. I didn't know about the thyroid roblems and am unaware whether, if at all, this has ever been checked but will certainly raise it with the GP next time round. I get up at 05.00 - 05.30 every morning and have a nap generally in the evenings and so it appears my body clock may have adjusted to the what happens in a day.Thanks all.</blockquote>
