Hello
First off what a great forum for people such as myself who are newly diagnosed-thankyou. I am 52 and was diagnosed on Wednesday as being type 2. I am overweight but not sofa bound. I have joined the gym again and living in the peak district with two dogs can walk long distances! I have been prescribed metaformin (500) and at present am taking one a day with my evening meal. I have been given a monitor from the diabetic nurse and am keeping a diary of what I eat and my BG levels. The levels are ranging from 10.2 up to 20 at the moment though today they are 13 ish and 16.8 I can find lots of info on about low levels but not so much about high levels. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I am seeing the diabetic nurse again tomorrow,
Thanks
Mike
