Dislikes
being lectured by my husband about my diet and medicine
My fasting blood sugar has been over 12.5 for last 3 weeks. Normally it is around 8. Increasing insulin and medication causes Hypo. How long at this higher level is going to cause complications?
My next Doctor appointment is in 5 weeks time!

What is the lowest value you see during the day ? 12.5 is silly high. Anything you could do diet-wise to reduce it in the meantime....
