[QUOTE="midiman, post: 2254037, member: 513344"] I didn't have a choice, it's what they gave me. I managed to get it working, it looks like that I am not providing it with enough blood on the strip even though it bleeps. I started taking blood from my right forearm and I just about get enough. My reading at 11PM before bed was 10.2 mmol/L Pre break was 11.3 Post breakfast 13.2 I managed to get in contact with my regular clinician and she advised to keep doing what I am doing and take 1 Gliclazide tablet if my reading is over 10 and see how I get on. And up it to two per day until I can get under 10 mmol/L. Then will have another hbac1 in a couple of months and look to wind down the drugs dose depending on my progress. [/QUOTE]
