Hi all.
I was diagnosed 29th November with HBa1C of 53 (asymptomatic). I immediately made changes and I’ve lost 1.5 stones since then.
However, just after Xmas I started with massively increased thirst, blurry vision (blurrier than normal) and slow healing wounds, so the DN put me on metformin. My fasting level on that day was 8.1mmol/L and I was advised to start using a monitor.
My levels since increasing metformin seem to be lower (eg today I’ve had:- fasting 6.8, after breakfast 8.5, before lunch 4.3 and after lunch 6.3.)
I have an eating disorder so skipping meals is something I’m working on (especially breakfast). So any suggestions for breakfast ideas would be appreciated.
