Those tend to raise glucose levels in diabetics drastically. Not sure if they do in non diabetics as well, but it could be a reason why your BG went this high this fast.You're not doing anything wrong, it takes time to find the right balance between medication and diet and everything else, especially with the cancer and the treatment throwing everything off kilter as well!I don't know what kind of foods you eat, it might be you can improve your numbers some more through that route. However, if you're cutting out more carbs, please make sure to always have your meter and some quick acting glucose on you! Being on gliclazide means you can go low. Which isn't much of a problem, as long as you can treat right away.Wish you all the best!</blockquote>
