[QUOTE="Lyndsay444, post: 1668847, member: 461727"] Hi there I was diagnosed t2 4 weeks ago with a blood test result of 105 seems it explains the excessive thirst etc and lethargy. I’m on 2000mg of metformin and 80mg of gliclozide tablets daily. Been told to get my blood glucose down to 7, however that’s impossible the lowest if ever managed is 11. And at that result I was pretty much unable to function I just slept 24 hours I didn’t want to eat anything and I felt absolutely awful. I’ve been like that the past 3 days with blood result of 11-13. I ate some chocolate biscuits today and bloods shot up to 22.8 and I feel great. I was able to get house in order after doing nothing for last 3 days. I’m worried if I get my blood below 10 I will be in a comatose state. I wondered if my blood monitor could be set wrong? Or if people are managing on higher glucose levels than the recommended 7. I’ve not had a hypo crash ( nurse said that’s below 5 ) I’m sure I would feel dead at that considering I’m exhausted at 11-13. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you [/QUOTE]
