[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2291938, member: 480869"] What sort of levels are you getting now and what medication are you on for diabetes? If you are on certain medications and rapidly change your diet keep a close eye on levels in case they drop far more than you expect and hypo. Eg gliclazide or insulin and a few other that warn of hypos as a side effect. Not applicable to metformin alone. If that looks possible medication will need reducing. Don’t be convinced by a hcp to raise carbs again just so you can take the medication that lowers your response to the carbs you want to cut. Madness. Going low carb or even more so keto will change your readings pretty much immediately. [/QUOTE]
