Hi.
So i was diganosed 12 months ago but told no drugs or testing needed. Just life style changes.
12 months on while pre op for a test my hba1c came back at 110
Ive been given Gliclazide 80mg 2x per day and monitor and my annual review is on the 7th Feb.
Initially my readings were over 20mmol/L all day (testing 6x daily) with an initial average of 20.2 with a projected Hba1c of 123.
7 days on the average is down to 9.1 with a projected Hba1c of 87.5 so things are happening (yes im working hard and hitting my low carb diet really well).
However my morning results seem to all be 11 to 15 then all my afternoon results fall to within normal levels.
I dont know how to bring my morning numbers down .. i tried a late night snack last night but no joy.
I eat at 9, 12.30, 7.30 and try not to snack and drink 2L water per day my Carbs and Fat are always in budget 130g and 30g respectively. Gliclazide at Breakfast (9.00) and Teatime (7.30).
Can any one help, is this normal, if not what can i do to get it down,
I weigh 24st (incase thats relevant)
I cant find anything about this on the www.
Any help appreciated
Thanks
